Annotation Services?

Hi,

I posed this question on plone-dev with no response so I thought I would 
try it here, where the thread was discussed a while ago.

I am wondering if anyone is still interested in exploring the 
possibility of integrating annotation services within plone - ie 
developing a annotea client which runs in an ordinary browser (perhaps 
using sarrisa, or even within flash).

The idea has been floated in the past, but seems to have trailed off... 
  Has this idea been abandoned?  Did it prove unfeasible, or did it just 
fade away unexplored?


Thanks,
Jonah

From: Nate Aune, Date: Mon, 24 May 2004 18:45:32 +0200 We may want to 
look at an entirely different solution for commenting,
such as ZAnnot which implements an Annotea server in Zope.

Then you can use a tool like Annozila (plug-in for Mozilla), or develop
a javascript-based client in Plone to make annotations *ON* the page,
without modifying the page itself.

Annotation-ServicesRice University has developed a standards-compliant
annotation server for
Zope that I would like to integrate into Plone. This task is highly suited
for a sprint, and is one of the things I would like to propose for the
sprint too.
The product provides an annotation server for Zope, implementing the W3C's
Annotea (URL at end of mail) protocol which allows clients to add
annotations to web pages without modifying the pages' source.
Essentially what we need to do is to write a Zope/Plone client to interact
with this annotation server, so we don't have to rely on the users having
dedicated Annotation clients installed.
