It seems that for many releases now an upgrade to this library has been on our list.  We've hesitated for a number of reasons.  One reason was that we didn't have any code that was in a state to consider.  Another major reason is that the editor is something that is front and centre for many many users, and it is not something that we wanted to do lightly.  We didn't want to make a change that would make the editor unusable for many people.  We've had the current editor for quite some time and we know what we have.

With the end of life having arrived for TinyMCE 2.0 we would like to try and move forward with this upgrade.  But we don't want to do it without your feedback.

We would very much appreciate feedback on tracker item 12376.  The file that we would like to put forward for consideration can be downloaded directly from joomlacode.  If you have a JoomlaCode ID we would appreciate you leaving feedback there.  Otherwise, you may post your comments on this blog.

Your assistance with this will help us to make a decision regarding the future of TinyMCE 3.0 in the 1.5 branch.
