Just an observation from the home page:
 
You are looking for a :
All-in-one information management solution
Rich-text one-pane outliner
Two-pane outliner with RTF editor
 
That last line is inaccurate, isn't it? I would prefer rtf, and I seem to remember that it is supposed to be implemented, but for now, it"s html.

Thanks for pointing out this Jon,
 
It should say: rich text editor, as RTF is, you're correct, generally referring to a specific type of rich text (MS RTF format)

The current plan is:
  1. v0.9.26: Enhanced calendar
  2. v0.9.27: Enhanced Rich Text Pane
  3. v0.9.28: More Ecco-like grid and filtering
  4. v0.9.29: Enhanced Gantt and other changes in preparation for v1.0R

Pierre,
 
I am unclear about your plan with respect to an MS RTF format editor pane. Do you plan to create and RTF editor pane for sure? And if so, will the HTML pane still be there in the future? And what about MHT. If I put data into MHT will I still be able to access it in the future? I'm wondering about backward compatibility. I want to start using IQ for real work, but I'm confused an concerned about these issues.
 
Also, is there anything in the plan to do an export to MS Word? Will you eventually get to this? I'm surprised more people have not voted for this feature. To me the outliner and the word processor are at the very core of the 2-pane outliner and Word and PDF outputs are critical. I don't worry about PDF that can be easily produced once I have Word output.

export to MS Word with formating templates - HTML not sufficient for business use

In order to fully integrate this into my daily business workflow it needs to move past a personal info manager - need export several business software formats - MS Word is most prominent, but there are several others. I want to use this to replace AMODE, mindmanager, and several other tools I use daily, but export capability is holding it back.

Hi Dave,
 
The chosen component to replace the current IE-dependant one is from WPCubed
 
It fully supports RTF, HTML and MHT editing, so no need to worry about future compatibility issues. This will be a major step in making IQ more user-friendly...

Hot Damn!!!! That is exciting...I can't wait!
 
Now, if down the road, you could implement the selective RTF compiler too ( http://www.sqlnotes.net/drupal5/index.php?q=node/2378), this thing would be a screaming machine...well it probably is that already...but this would push it over the top in my mind. I can envision doing single sourcing, reusable learning objects, semantic web stuff, ontologies, and on and on...if you had this feature.
 
Thanks for your reply,
 
Dave
