[okfn-dev] Annotator update.

[Aron Carroll]

Hi all,

Just thought I'd post another update on the status of the Annotator. This last week we've focused on updating the permissions plugin to make it more flexible. Also the UI of the annotator has been updated to make it a little nicer to use and to accommodate plugins adding additional fields.

The bookmarklet is now hooked up to a staging version of the annotator store. There's a basic version up on a test page if anyone is interested, it currently saves annotations to a staging server.

Feedback on the UI would be appreciated. It's already been noted that the initial disclosure of the edit/delete buttons on the annotation viewer is confusing and that it's not clear the editor is draggable (by dragging the dark grey bar).

This week will be focused on getting the bookmarklet working with user accounts on annotateit.org as well as fixing the style bleed that occurs when it's injected into some sites. There’s also now a sparse [wiki](https://github.com/okfn/annotator/wiki) up on the GitHub page for documentation for users and plugin developers. So we’ll be adding to that too.

Cheers,
Aron
