Definitely nice to see a familiar face! Good luck... I'm sure Sigil is in good hands.

Hear hear. A very warm welcome, John.

(and can we have a hyperlink editor, please? )
Also a ToC editor that removes internal ToC as it builds the external ToC.

Congratulations John. Does this mean that Sigil will also strip DRM?

A hearty welcome to you, John. I hope you have a good time with Sigil.

(And woot for PDB! I've just had to extract a .pdb ebook a couple of days ago).

(FWIW, I kinda hoped/guessed there's a new maintainer when I saw some issues that I am subscribed to on the Sigil tracker being re-assigned).

No, NO, No. The internal TOC has its place. Anyone wanting to remove it can just remove the html it is on. Just because you don't like it doesn't make it wrong. Many people like both to be present for various reasons unrelated to your trying to take over the world.

I was sad to see that the original developer is leaving but it is good to see that development of Sigil in the future is in good hands.

Congrats and welcome, John!

So happy to see that Sigil will be maintained and maybe even move forward. Hyperlink editor and spell check would surely make my year!

Fantastic! It's a relief to know that the development of Sigil will continue. It's an invaluable tool for me when working on ePub files.

Thank you!

This is really good news! Sigil is a great tool, but it is far from being a complete ebook creation solution.

I want to thank Valloric for his great work and John for taking it up from now on.

Although the hyperlink editor and spell checker are important tools, I think a more important enhancement would be something like BookDesigner's "Element Browser", where you can search for broken paragraphs, bad line ends, etc, without resorting to regular expressions.
