Thread:Talk:Flow Portal/Interactive Prototype/Markup-mode *needed* in editor/reply (4)

Oh, come on Brandon. We're all sitting in the same boat (while we can leave it when it sinks, you can't).

Now you ask me (who I am not involved with the WMF or development at all) to talk to your colleagues how they should design VisualEditor to work with your discussion system?

I'm not bugging you with this for the sake of bugging. I do it because I know it will cause serious clashes (to the point of people boycotting Flow or even leaving, both of which can't be your goal), when it is not fixed. I propose you achieve Zen acceptance that a markup editor is needed and start to negotiate with the VE team how fast they can implement a markup editor.

I do not understand why you're giving yourself so stubborn regarding this issue. It helps neither you nor Flow nor the community to deny the obvious.
