I had a peek at this editor a while ago, and learned it became a free product now. Good news from the Netherlands!
A java based almost WYSIWYG xml and css editor:
- with docbook support
- with a spell checker (!)
- all kinds of plugins, including a webdav connector (!), pdf generation , ....
In other words ....

at the summer conference ez agreed to quickly put together an online editor for linux and leave the development of it to the community. it was meant to be a couple of days work, but haven't heard yet which days will be used.
ez, care to comment?

That's not entirely what I understood: the ez crew was positive about the idea to kick-start an OE development based on Bitflux and let the rest of the community (or a few, including me) do the rest. Basically, it needs some DAV specific plugin to ez publish. The hard part will be the insertion of images/objects in a user friendly manner.

i've had a look at this and talked it over with one of their developers.
the xml-editor requires a one time 10MB (at least) download and install procedure on the client machine, so it's more a replacement / alternative for the Desktop Edition than the Online Editor.
they're also working on an applet that wouldn't need an install procedure (loads automagically), but that's in a very early development stage.
there's no development roadmap or planned release date for this applet yet, translated quote: ``it all depends on demand for the product''.
i don't think this is the short-term way to go.
