Because it's (almost) the end of two years of work. Because I'm very happy I could do it. Because I'm very pleased with the result. Because it was not easy to do. Because all your support helped a lot. Because, because, because.
YAY!

Daniel,
Your superb work has let me give up dreamweaver and do all our corporate website stuff with NVU. The best features for me are the great support of CSS and the ability to easily float stuff in divs for easy placement of page elements. Why anyone would use Frontpage (NVU's main competition I think) I cannot say.
Bravo!
Congratulations Daniel, for Nvu itself and putting up with the occasional less than constructive comment along the way ...
congrats! keep up the great work! i hope that SOME DAY i can dump even Dreamweaver MX 2004, which is clearly the state-of-the-art but which i am sure you can top if you put together a nice team and keep it rocking and rolling after 1.0 final
Every bit of your hard work is appreciated. Merci beaucoup. Thank you very much. Todah raba. Ummm, gracias? Just about tapped out on languages here, but thanks.
Yet Another Yay
Hey glazman... great news ... i ding to use the 1.0 !
Besides delete the above comemet its spam from my country... isn´t it lovely... at least it is truth when it says that uour country is beautifull... !
NVU is excellent, great work! NVU is simply the best XHTML editor out there bar none! We use it in our agency's Apache Cocoon based web publishign system. Nothing else works better.
I thought somewhere there was information on the future development roadmap for NVU after 1.0. I'm trying to get our agency to officially include NVU in our web content management tool kit, but my manager is bulking because NVU is free and open source, so he is afraid there will be little if any development after 1.0. I know this isn't the case, but I need hard evidence to rebut him.
Any information I can get on this is greatly appreciated.
Gary: Free and open source is a problem ?! Warf !!! Nvu continues its life, and after backporting code to cvs.mozilla.org, we'll move towards 1.1 and in the long run 2.0.
Thanks Daniel. I do not agree with management. I have fought an uphill battle over the past few months to get NVU recognized as a legitimate tool for our agency's web content management tool kit.
Part of this stems from managers not having a full understanding of the power of the NVU-Cocoon synergy, part of it from a lack of understanding of the power of editing in NVU as compared to other tools. On my end I need to get management attention, I think nice demonstration is in order.
By the way, I just recently noticed that NVU has the capability to extract styles and create a class hover over. If only Internet Exploder support hover on any element.
