QZB home page (draft) ready. What does *easy* mean?

[Roman Suzi <rnd@sampo.karelia.ru>]

Hi!

I have just put a QZB project home page on the web
at 
http://cvs.seul.org/~rnd/index.html
aka
http://cran.mit.edu/~rnd/index.html

(no CVS yet: I am learning it, it'll take some time)

I am not sure if I am right in  putting  project  web-page  at
cvs.seul.org...


Main body is based on my descriptive letter to seul-edu  list,
but some summary is given.

I am sorry for <pre> - </pre> - but I really see no reason  for
nicities yet. (In fact, I like spartanic style).

I am still waiting for your ideas and design advice.

Bill (Tihen), I have put your reply too, as it is constructive.
(As it was in seul-edu, thus public already).

I have so many design ideas that I  don't  know  which  one  is
better. Probably, I will choose the most simple one (so I could
create and develop a proto quickly).

I am planning to produce some working code for my client/server
thingie in early January. Without the  code  to  show  I  can't
seriously invite anyone into coding, only  into  discussion  of
design.

I am also looking for NON TECHNICAL people to tell me what kind
of markup language could be best from their point of view.

I want quizes to be easily  put  into  text  files  with  clear
end-user structure. I believe that ML is  usable  NOT  ONLY  by
computer specialists. However, its  hard  to  me  to  define  a
markup language which will be easy for non-programmers...

Can anybody give me an advice here?
Is my proposed ML (see project web-page) too hard for enduser?

Or is a visual QZB creator "a must"?

Can  HTML  be  used  as  markup  (but,  of  course,  understood
specifically by QZB, for example, <u> </u> could mean question,
<b> </b> right answer, <i> <i> additional info...) ?
- in this case Netscape Communicator could be used to create
QZB-files...


Sincerely yours,
Roman A. Suzi
