It hasn't progressed much. There are a number of technical difficulties about
fixing bugs in the javascript editor, integrating the rich text in the wiki
page, working with existing wiki pages, working with mixed richtext/wikitext
pages, upgrading/downgrading, working with page sections, working with
uploads/files/attachments, autosuggesting internal links etc. Once the
difficulties overcome, it should be a piece of cake. :-)
At the moment nobody is paid to work on this feature, so there are no contract
deadlines. It will progress as fast as I find "free" time and I decide to
spend it working on the RichText editor instead of doing something else. :-)
That said, I very much appreciated all the comments and ideas that people on
the list gave me. I'll use them.
Thanks,
Petko
