Re: [Tiki-devel] Proposal to Replace simile_timeline with vis-timeline in Tiki

Hi John

Welcome - this list isn't as busy as it used to be, most of the code chat now happens on gitlab MR's etc but it's nice to see some activity here! :)

Thanks for that info, can't wait to look into mermaid.js, but actually will have to... maybe others can investigate (Franck?)
