Are there any docs on what needs to be modified in FCK/CKEditor to make it work with Sakai, so that upgrades can be done more regularly? 


cheers,
Steve

This would make anything earlier than 2.8 (since 2.8 had a CKEditor option) mostly unusable by default. I was going to find a Windows 7 machine today (since it won't install in XP) and see if there are still these big problems. If they weren't fixed in the final release is we'd probably need to patch in a IE8 compatibility patch for all of the releases that are using this editor.
