Hey all,
I've been working on the InlineEditor extension again, primarily working on a new interface that doesn't use the different edit modes anymore, as the usability testing showed that this was not the right approach. Luckily, without a change in the underlying algorithms, it was doable to combine all the edit modes into one interface. This also resulted in the deletion of tens of files plus hundreds of lines of code [1], which usually is a good thing, because it shows it's a simpler and more natural approach. If you're interested in testing this on your own wiki or looking at the code, grab your copy from SVN. [2]
If you're interested in testing this, a wiki has been set up here: http://janpaulposma.nl/sle/wiki As you might know, some more usability testing will be done soon by GRNET [3], so we can see if this interface works better or not. Feel free to ask questions and throw in suggestions, etc.
Best regards, Jan Paul
