at the summer conference ez agreed to quickly put together an online editor for linux and leave the development of it to the community. it was meant to be a couple of days work, but haven't heard yet which days will be used.
That's not entirely what I understood: the ez crew was positive about the idea to kick-start an OE development based on Bitflux and let the rest of the community (or a few, including me) do the rest. Basically, it needs some DAV specific plugin to ez publish. The hard part will be the insertion of images/objects in a user friendly manner.
i've had a look at this and talked it over with one of their developers.
the xml-editor requires a one time 10MB (at least) download and install procedure on the client machine, so it's more a replacement / alternative for the Desktop Edition than the Online Editor.
they're also working on an applet that wouldn't need an install procedure (loads automagically), but that's in a very early development stage.
there's no development roadmap or planned release date for this applet yet, translated quote: ``it all depends on demand for the product''.
i don't think this is the short-term way to go.
