Wow, nice Miklos. Its not everyday that a developer comes up and
shares his work with us users. It would be nice if you would blog
about it sometimes, maybe tag it so somebody like me who doesn't have
any programming knowledge (and doesn't want to) can come and see what
progress is being made in that.

On the other side, what would you say would be a good strategy to push
other text-editors to use the spec. or come close to it. What they
need to look at, I can atleast ask in abiword, gedit and other
open-source text-editors even if its just as a wishlist bug. Would
need that info.

Lastly, I have just subscribed to the nomail version of the list.
While the traffic is not much now, in the coming days I do feel its
going to be big and I don't want to be distracted by other
discussions. As already said not a programmer so many things which
would be discussed may be those as well as other wishlist stuff.

Anyways, looking forward to knowing more from you.

Thank you for your time.
