ckeditor is still available for Geeklog with last jQuery plugin but I
will remote it in the next release. Today, there is some very helpfull
plugins for fckeditor (media gallery browser, google map, images
manager with resize, crop, rotate, watermark and preview image tools,
videos embed...) I'm not ready to change.

Aloha and in-place editing may require some radical changes here and there (I did actually whip up an Aloha "integration" of sorts back at that IKS workshop[2] in Amsterdam, but it couldn't save changes - it was more of a proof of concept, and a weak one at that).
