Not to be a wet blanket (too much), but a prerequisite for any other 
editor (or any other community software) making it into the 2008.11 live 
CD is that it be integrated into the SFW[1] (or other appropriate) 
consolidation so that it will have been vetted to meet the 
redistributability requirements and be capable of being supported by 
Sun's support organization.  If nobody picks up the ball and does that 
for the various editors you're all fans of, there's nothing to discuss.
