[daisy] Sketch Editor 1.0

[Karel Vervaeke]

Some more notes:

* The unpacked daisywiki structure contains resources/sketchApplet
but the form template references resources/SketchApplet/ergon-...
This will not work in unix environments because the paths are
case-sensitive.

* In the readme file you wrote SketchDokument - you probably want to
change this to SketchDocument, as the document-styling files use the
English notation. (I know it's nitpicking, but I had to go back and
change my document name, so you might want to fix it).

* (BTW, found your source code alongside the class files in the end, as
noted before, you should try separate them and only distribute the
source + a build system.)

Other than that, you probably spent a lot of time, things look good and
we're entusiastic - don't be put down by my feedback and do not hesitate
to ask if you have questions.

Don't worry if you don't get everything entirely finished, the least we
can do is take our share of work to integrate your work into the Daisy
codebase.

Regards,
Karel
