The problem's in the style. At present, as we know the links will be presented as references after the main text body in both the HTML and text-only versions, we write the text to reflect this. The style you would use when writing text with an in-line link is, in some cases, different.
Could we perhaps take the RSS output and post-process this to derive a text version using XSLT?
again, the issue's not the technical question of how do you turn it into a text document, there are ways to do that.
I may actually have been misunderstanding a bit here. is the issue just to convert the 'References' block in an FWN formatted just as it now into HTML links for publication within Insight? if that's the thing, I don't have any problems.
Beat writers are going to write up their beats differently in Fedora Insight than they do now on the wiki. This will take a bit of getting used to as any change does, but once the editor is in place, it should be roughly equivalent in the amount of work, if I have to guesstimate from this vantage point.
The larger question, I suppose is whether we should try to maintain FWN on the wiki as well as FWN within Fedora Insight, at least during the Oct.14- FUDCon Toronto (Dec 7-9). I think if FI is successful, we can completely migrate from the wiki to zikula as the delivery mechanism, which means we can free ourselves of wiki markup and think of these purely as HTML-enhanced text.
