Hi,
At the Greek Research and Education Network (GRNET) we look at the possibility of contributing to the development of WYSIWYG editor support in Wikipedia. We understand that considerable work has already taken place in the area, e.g.:
* http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/WYSIFTW * https://svn.wikia-code.com/wikia/trunk/extensions/wikia/RTE/ * http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/User:JanPaul123/Sentence-level_editing
We therefore think that it will not be productive to reinvent the wheel over here.
Our contribution can take the form of providing developers that will devote part (or all) of their time for some months in 2011. We welcome any comments and suggestions on how we could push this forward, and in particular:
* Specific tasks / components that need to be designed, developed, optimized, etc., and estimates of effort and timeframe.
Best Regards,
Panos Louridas GRNET
