Hi:

Amaya is not as reliable as many development tools, but I find it useful
for quick prototyping in instances where I know I'll be editing the source
later. Amaya produces code that's very easy to read and edit. Also, Amaya
has an interesting visualization tool that let yous view the structure of
your document.

Keep in mind that Amaya is open source, so if you feel you can help out
with additional functionality and bug fixes, you can.

I also think it's a credit to their very small development team that
they produce and maintain this tool, with a new version released every
few months or so, that has better standards compliance and more "forward
vision" than Mozilla.

Thanks -
Jeff
