Un first RPM of BlueGriffon version 0.9RC1, a new WYSIWYG content editor for the World Wide Web, is available in remi repository for fedora.
Read version announcement : BlueGriffon 0.9RC1
As always,
yum --enablerepo=remi install bluegriffon
For a while, I have been looking at Daniel Glazman work on this new editor, which is the NVU successor, but also a totally new application.
As it's now quite complete and operational, I think it's time to create a first RPM for fedora.
Of course, I expect the web developers to give us their feedbacks.
RPM are available for fedora >= 11.

Fedora 11 and 12 RPM added.
Why not to submit this as a package to Fedora proper? I would be willing to make you a package review if you do so.
@Matěj Cepl : yes, I plan to submit this, to official repository.
For now, it use a patched version of nightly xulrunner, and I would prefer to package it as a true xulrunner application, so using the system xulrunner. Probaly not possible quite soon.
I also need to inspect a bunbled library (JSCSSP).
My repository is always a "first" step before review (which allow to get some feedback).

I see ... yes, apparently patched xulrunner is needed, because your src.rpm (which is not simple to find, BTW) doesn't build on Fedora/Rawhide.
My offer to help with packaging (or with poking to Firefox maintainers if needed) still stands.
@Matěj Cepl: if you want to follow my work, see my git repository. Rawhide build is fixed.
Thanks a lot, now it builds even for me and looks really nice. Three questions (not sure, whether you know):
a) The build is still against bundled xulrunner, right? Do you think you would be able to use the system one instead?
b) I am kind of uneasy about his business model (Open Core, paid-for extensions). Do you know whether he will allow third-party (and FLOSS) extensions in his "app market"?

> Do you think you would be able to use the system one instead?
Yes. I'm working on this. But I need some info from upstream (to know if they will stick to xulrunner 2.0 or xulrunner trunk, and if the required patch is on the road to official xulrunner).
> Do you know whether he will allow third-party (and FLOSS) extensions in his "app market"?
No, I should ask upstream.
Spec file using system xulrunner is ready, but, because of Mozilla Bug #319141 I think I will defer this package review. (I'm also waiting for some upstream info)
Remi.
Update to 0.9-0.6.svn554, with pt-PT locale and which use the shared Gecko engine (xulrunner2).
