[daisy] Sketch Editor 1.0

[Karel Vervaeke]

Yes, we are still interested in integrating the editor (i.e. evaluate
whether its implementation is of sufficient quality).  I was planning to
do this somewhere before the next Daisy release (september), but it is
too soon to say when I will have time to do so.

In the mean time, I had a quick look.  Perhaps I overlooked, but I did
not find the source-code for your work.
Also, was there a reason to merge your code and jhotdraw code in one jar
file? (It should be possible to run applets with different jarfiles, so
there is no need to do that).

If you could structure the zip-file so that it contains a working
build and build instructions, it would be very helpful.

I am currently working on another applet, which is built using maven.
http://svn.cocoondev.org/viewsvn/branches/BRANCH_EDIT_APPLET/daisy/applications/daisywiki/parteditor-applet/

* ideally, your build should prepare a directory structure which is
identical to the contents of your zipfile), the wiki frontend script
will copy all resources to the appropriate locations
* The jhotdraw dependency does not need to be included in your code
(maven, the build tool used for daisy takes care of downloading
dependencies, for your convenience I have already put the jhotdraw jar
file up on the maven repository at svn.cocoondev.org).  You you may want
to have a look at how the daisywiki frontend build scripts copies
dependencies to its target directory.

Apart from that, I also noticed that your classes are compiled with Java
6.  Because the applets should run on as many clients as possible, you
should get it down at least to Java 1.5 (Apparently there still is no
Java 6 for Mac(?))  This should not be a problem, it is usually a matter
of compiler settings.

Regards,
Karel
