Just read the editing rules. For now all the Silver and above members can edit the posts. That IMHO can make things worse. Anyone can become a Silver member with time. Hence someone who had joined CP long back and does not have a good track record here, can try to have some fun using this feature. Same would happen if someone gives a reply like:
1. Why should we do your work? Or
2. What have you tried? etc.
I would recommend to give these rights only to a bunch of people who have shown responsibility and are trustworthy for you. I understand choosing a bunch would be tough given the number of members out here. You can filter out records based on membership status and then employ a small group who can then filter the result further. The small group can have people who are a part of CP from it's initial days and have contributed a lot.

I am a Gold Member, which comes with rights and responsibilities, one of which is not to edit or judge an article on which I am not totally conversant.(ie VERY FEW!).
There should not be a barrier to knowledge or experience from adding to the pile, however I do see the advantages of restricting some rights until certain criteria have been reached.
That said, there are some individuals who should on no account be allowed to have that authority.
Naming no names but you all know the sort I am on about.

I fear you speak the truth.
I do not misuse that which I have been given, for it would be detrimental to the entire site/community.
Most people here are the same, unfortunately there are a few damned silly arses that do because they think it is fun.

Silver members can edit posts currently, but this will be changed soon so that members who have reputation as an author or question answerer (only) can edit. No longer will members get important rights purely by the passage of time.

Cool! That is good. Can you raise the bar from silver to gold for now? That will be better IMHO.

In that case, can you honorarily upgrade me to gold? 
Visual Studio is an excellent GUIIDE.

0: when replying to a question after the first enter the editor loses focus.
1: when replying the 'minor change' checkbox is visible (why?)
2: after replying the question itself on the overview of questions get's marked edited
It seems the answer / reply gets treated as if it is a edit of the message.

0. This is a known bug. We'll get this and other editor-related bug fixed as soon as possible.
1. New bug - thanks for the report!
2. Yes this is by design. A question itself being edited and having a new answer added, we believe, both warrant it being bumped up on the latest page.

Just a couple of things about this I've noticed, or maybe I'm being special
After clicking on "Improve Question", if you wish to go back/cancel, be it through the big red button or back on the browser (FF3.5.5), all the fields simply get blanked, and you need to hit back or cancel again.
Also, I've tried a couple of times to format some questions nicely using the new editor, and I'm finding it awkward. It seems each line break converts the text into separate PRE blocks, so then if you want to add language specific formatting, you have to do it block by block, as it wont let you select the whole section you just hit "-Formatted-" for. The -language- combobox stayed greyed while you still have the initial selection.
Otherwise, I like the idea!

Yep I just fixed this yesterday. It should be up on codeproject.com later today if all goes as planned.

There are definitely some oddities with our current editor. We're in the process of working to improve this and will try to get it out as soon as we can.

Thank you. Much appreciated!

I'm sipping code through a straw here at PDC and just finalising some stuff, so we should be good for a new upload in a few.

Hi Elina,
I just checked and the zip file is empty again.
Just thought I'd let you know

I see the Reputation tag, and have read the FAQs on it.
Whilst I note it is beta, I presume it is 'Live', and will it supercede or run along with the Bronze/Silver/Gold/Platinum/Grausite scale?
Also will it be dynamic or updated weekly?
Thanks

Look at the rep graph in your profile. It ticks daily.
3x12=36
2x12=24
1x12=12
0x12=18

OK A daily update!
I just looked last night and saw no changes.
I see there is a need for a time microscope.
