While all of this is great if you've paid $$$ for both Windows and Home Site,
this doesn't help out the majority of Zope users who don't have either.  How
about modifying an existing open source editor that is cross platform and use
that?  At least that way, Allaire wouldn't be able to do something against you
because Zope competes with Cold Fusion.

Don't get me wrong, I thing that having a separate DTML editor (that also
understands HTML) is a very good thing.  I want that myself.  I just think that
you are opening yourself up to a lot of heartache because it is all too easy for
Allaire (who owns both Home Site and Cold Fusion) to destroy the project.  I
would love to have the capability you espouse, but I'm not Sysiphus.  I would
rather devote my time and effort into something that I know couldn't be taken
away from me.

Just my $0.02.
