Hi Christian,

This is great news indeed. We definitively need some help refactoring
the WYSIWYG Editor.
I've had some ideas also on how to improve things in the future. We
could also setup a branch so that we can share the work done and test it.
I also have some questions about how you did this. Did you refactor the
conversion code from the existing conversion or did you wrote the
convertor from scratch ?
Maybe the interested people in this thread could plan an online meeting
in IRC or Skype to discuss the architecture.

I count:

Christian Gmeiner
Mathieu EMPTOZ
Phung Nam who is the core team is responsible for the WYSIWYG Editor
Ludovic Dubost (myself)

Maybe Sergiu and/or Vincent from the Core team would like to participate.

When would be a good time knowing that morning is better ?
