I upgraded Roller to the newest Xinha around the time that 5.0 came out and I did some testing. It seemed to work fine and my father uses it on his blog without problems.
I think those issues can be closed with WON'T FIX and a comment to "try the new release" and RESOLVED for the upgrade to the latest Xinha version because we did that in 5.0. - Dave On Mon, Jan 7, 2013 at 9:34 PM, Glen Mazza <[email protected]> wrote: > Hi, we have four open issues referring to some "Xinha" text editor, with > none of them more recent than 2008: > > https://issues.apache.org/**jira/issues/?jql=project%20%** > 3D%20ROL%20AND%20status%20%3D%**20Open%20AND%20text%20~%**20xinha<https://issues.apache.org/jira/issues/?jql=project%20%3D%20ROL%20AND%20status%20%3D%20Open%20AND%20text%20~%20xinha>< > https://issues.apache.org/**jira/issues/?jql=project%20%** > 3D%20ROL%20AND%20status%20%3D%**20Open%20AND%20text%20%7E%**20xinha<https://issues.apache.org/jira/issues/?jql=project%20%3D%20ROL%20AND%20status%20%3D%20Open%20AND%20text%20%7E%20xinha> > > > > I'm not familiar with this editor -- does Roller still use it?
