Can't wait. Uh, I won't have to lear anything new, will I? I *hate* that.

Nah. If anything, I try to make it even simpler. Deal? :)

Arbus, don't trust this Gossip guy. Run while you still can. IT'S A TRAP!

Please, please, please, please, pretty please with a cherry on top, release the code!

Mwahahaha! No. :P
I'm not completely ruling out the very slight possibility of eventually releasing the source code under some circumstances at some point in the future, tho, but for now, no public code.

Maintaining public code isn't a huge hassle, unless you want it to be. You just put up tarballs every time you've got a working version - if someone sends you changes you're not interested in, you say "thanks but no thanks" and let them fork.
hehe textile - I remember asking about that at one point for GLUE.
As I said elsewhere, let me know if you need/want a tester.

yeah - I forgot who'd posted it, but it's pretty nifty. Thanks for pointing it out; I use it on my political blog. (Which is Movable Type with MT-Textile)

Textile is definitely on my list. I'm even considering to ditch the old markup completely in favor of Textile.
How would it make things different on the user's end, exactly?

Do you mean Textile, entipy? Or v2 as whole?

Textile, sorry.

The markup code for text input (entries, comments) would be slightly different. This is both good and bad; good, because it'll produce valid XHTML code which means lists would finally work right ;) and has more features, bad (slightly bad, that is) because you'd have to learn a new markup if you want to write markup yourself -- but you could also use the markup links above the textareas (Bold, Italic, Underlined, Image etc.). If you mostly use those, chances are good that you wouldn't even have to care.
If you want to know what Textile is like, take a look at the creators' example page. You'll notice that while it is different in type and form of markup, it comes with much more features and offers more flexibility. For instance, you can embed tables.

Any chance of getting textile input in g-blog v2?
