Dear all

Life without Kompozer is a pain to me. Nvu has some historical bug that
was killed in kompozer. My daily work require wysiwyg HTML editor a lot
because my work involve working with web pages with a lot of tables of
tabular data (you can hardly work efficiently with HTML tables with raw
HTML editor, e.g. for the work of merging table cells).

However after years and years kompozer is still not available in Gentoo
Linux. I start to have difficulty working with my colleagues who use
Ubuntu or SuSE who already replaced nvu with kompozer. Our SVN commit
message start to show stupid change to CSS back and forth because
different formatting of CSS by two editors.

What can I do besides waiting forever for compozer to be added to the
portage or complaining in this list?

P. S. I am also willing to start tutorial and mange to contribute
ebuilds to gentoo project, e.g. for ThinkingRock, for Pentaho Report
(these software didn't make their way into Gentoo Portage perhaps
because nobody make ebuilds for them). but I really hesitate because I
can see in bugzilla someone did ebuilds for kompozer years ago and never
accepted (so does ebuilds for amaya, for gpass etc), so if I contribute
ebuilds: but knowing it can be not accepted for years, I lost the
motivation.
