OK, so Bluefish is  too qualified for the desktop.

But it surely fits the gnome-office category.

I always thought the MS-Office based HTML editor was used heavily to
publish a lot of non standard HTML on the web. Bluefish on the otherhand
will be helpful in bringing about good neat web pages (the WWW is still
the way forward for many things, right?) and trouble shooting the old
ones.

On the i18n front the web is full of gimmicks like dynamic fonts and
practices that is unfriendly to  UTF-8 takeup. Yet they are the central
nodes of communication.

Further the features like DocBook XML handling makes Bluefish very
useful for tasks we all must do. I will leave the explanation on the
many appearing features to the Bluefish people though. 

Is there a dedicated list for the gnome-office people?
