And now comments about the plan: 1. What does "Actions should get new triggers." mean? 2.The two DCOP features are the same. Selectors are DTEP groups. Should be easy to implement. 3. KHTML: someone who knows a little shell scripting, XSLT and such may come up with an example how to turn an XML to HTML and view it in Konqueror. After that it's easy to integrate that in Quanta. Chris?

Uh... Depends on the XML. If it's, say, DocBook, then that's not a problem, as DocBook stylesheets are on... pretty much every system with kdelibs. Others, well, probably will need to be provided by the user. Does KHTML abide by the <?xml-stylesheet ?> PI? If not, then we'll need a mechanism to do that (libxslt). Also, CSS can be used to render XML. No need to convert. (Not possible with DocBook as it's freakin' HUGE. Erm.. it's possible, but it's not something you'd want to do :-))

4. Toolbars: - cleaning up is required and the same is true for DTEPs. Chris offered some help here.

Yeah, I want to clean that all up. I'm not sure what all there is to clean up, but I'll get to that when I get to that. :-D

- the "add this tag to a toolbar" is a nice idea - "Make toolbars abide by tag relationships like auto complete": I don't understand this.

I think this means: Don't let users insert tags via the toolbar if the tags don't belong there.

- Phase 2/2 sounds a little complicated to me and I'm also not sure that I understood it completely. 5. Templates: - as I already said, we need real templates - directory templates (includes the .tgz functionality) is on the feature plan already

About the rest, later .
