The statement you quoted me on above was a caution in the abstract about
standardizing on a complicated approach without having a few people
willing to process user contributions, primarily so that we don't
discourage such contributions. It was not directed at Anakia in
particular, hence the "or templating system." As I said, there are at
least three different suggestions floating around out there, so this was
simply my two cents on things to consider when deciding. I have
absolutely no experience with any of the proposed products, nor have I
ever pretended to.
Anyway, since it sounds like Geir has graciously volunteered to help me
form the "Ministry of Documentation" as he so cleverly coined it, the
point is more or less moot now. Users can submit plain text if they
like, and I certainly have no problems learning whatever the community
decides upon. Everybody wins.
Really, my man ... if you're going to take me to task on something,
you're going to have to learn not to quote me out of context. It's so
passe. For future reference, I never criticize an approach or product,
especially on a dev list, without thoroughly edifying myself on the
subject. (Yes, you can quote me on that. ) If you ever think that I
have, then you have misunderstood me.
Anyway, I had no idea that Anakia was your product. I will most
certainly have a look and provide my official critique. Since your
stance on JSP is dead-on accurate, and I hear that your replacement tool
is actually something of an improvement, Anakia certainly deserves a
look.
