   Re: [xml-dev] [ANN] oXygen XML Editor 6.0

[ Lists Home | Date Index | Thread Index ]

I second both motions:  <oXygen /> is hands down the best tool and I
would love to see support for XSLTUnit in the next version.  Eric's
obviously the right one to offer help in this area but if there is
anything you need you certainly know how to get a hold of me.

Thanks George!
