While there are no news updates since January of the
BlueGriffon WYSIWYG Webeditor project, the
Kompozer project is still alive and kicking. A 4th alpha (which runs pretty stable) of
Kompozer 0.8 is availabe for download. Kompozer 0.8 is focused on a new Mozilla core and the new UI displays more relevant information about the current HTML element: DOM tree, style properties, HTML code.
A lot of
localisations for Kompozer 0.8 are available too.
How to get Kompozer 0.8 running:* Make sure the package "xulrunner" is installed
* Download the Kompozer 0.8 binaries for Linux
* Extract the archive as root in "/opt/kompozer"
* Now create a new starter at your Gnome main menu or panel with command:
"/opt/kompozer/kompozer".

End of last year i wrote a post about
BlueGriffon a new WYSIWYG web editor and a successor of Kompozer and NVU.
Meanwhile the development goes on and BlueGriffon offers more
CSS support, a
project manager and a
template manager. Besides that

A while
NVU and the unofficial further development branch
Kompozer seems to be the only real WYSIWYG web editors on Linux. With
BlueGriffon the company
Disruptive Innovations (a W3C member too) brings fresh blood into this area. Disruptive Innovations are the developers of the older NVU too. Against the older WYSIWYG web editors BlueGriffon is based on Firefox. At the moment it is
only available via SVN or as
nightly for Windows.

KompoZer is a complete web authoring system that combines web file management, easy-to-use WYSIWYG web page editing and it is the unofficial bugfix release of NVU.
The new version ships with a new icon, some code cleanup and lots of improvements on the CSS editor.
