Thomas and I are currently integrating the editor in Lenya 2.0.2-dev,
have you started with this already?
Yes, but the code is still in an early stage of development.
Is the protocol pure Atom or does it have custom extensions?
It has editor-specific extensions.
For the sake of Open Source I would suggest that you publish the
protocol if it has custom extensions and discuss this with the community
first.
The ownership of the code belongs to the Uniklinikum Freiburg. IIUC they
will probably donate the server-side code to the Lenya project, which
IMO is a very kind move.
Don't get me wrong, I think it's great if new alternatives are being
integrated, but DO it transparently (which I don't see at the moment)
and otherwise do it as a private custom module.
We're not trying to establish a standard protocol, but integrate a
particular editor. The decision to keep it similar to Atom has practical
reasons.
This is not a community project, but a client project. Discussing the
details in public wouldn't allow us to meet our deadlines (which in this
case are not set by the client but by other circumstances) and to keep
our efforts within a reasonable budget.
Apart from that: Am I understanding correctly that you're suggesting
that the code shouldn't even be offered for donation if it hasn't been
designed as a community effort? Do the other developers agree to this?
If you're concerned that the code won't be maintained if it is not a
community effort: I think that this probability is virtually neglegible
since the editor will be used with Lenya 2.0 by the Uniklinikum and (if
the code will be donated) by the BeCompany. Apart from my personal
commitment to the Lenya project, commercial support for both the editor
and the CMS code will be available.
