[seul-edu] ISO Phase 3: Packaging of Escritor

["Darryl Palmer" <Darryl_Palmer_Jr@acm.org>]

Below is the response message that I received from Jean-Yves about
Escritor.  The first question: is should it be removed from Phase 3, it
isn't ready yet?  The second one is if there is anyone on the mailing
list that can finish the Linux port and if there is currently anyone
that wants the Linux port done?

Unfortunately, the developpement of Escritor for Linux was never
finished. It still runs on Windows only. Indeed, I don't have the time
to go on again and finish the code, maybe I'll do it in the future. If
you're interested with the current Linux code (using KDE + Qt libs), I
can search it within my archives and send it to you. Someone else might
finish the code instead of me...

Nevetheless, big thanks for the interest !
Sincerely.
