Hi Oscar:

Hee hee, don't worry about it. I think it should be 1.1 feature, not 1.0.1
... We need more time to test it before release, even Xinha claim most
plugins that made for htmlarea can run in Xinha. :D

They are indeed free to do whatever they want, but they've got a lot of help
in testing releases, patches feedback, and useful suggestions, and suddenly
the decide to shut down the project and go back to a proprietary model
leaving all the people who were using htmlarea in a really uncomfortable
situation-. If it wasn't for Xinha, thanks to the htmlarea folks we would
already be facing a few weeks of work to adapt a new wysiwyg editor into
plog... Not nice, if you ask me.

Anyway, if you can research into Xinha, please do it. We're not likely to
change anytime before 1.1 so we've got plenty of time :)
