Ok, I see your problem.
In DIAArticleApplication>>renderContentOn:, you have
html render: (DIAArticleEditor new article: DIAArticle new))
This means that every time you render, you're creating a new article
editor.
So the component doing the #call: is the ArticleEditor from the last time
you rendered - which doesn't affect the new one you create the next time
you render.
Subcomponents need to be created once, at initialization time, not for
each render - at least subcomponents that you expect #call: to work for.
Does that make sense?

A long time ago, I made that same mistake. Interestingly enough, there was
an earlier version of Seaside where that "mistake" actually worked out OK.
The point is, I don't think the design of Seaside ever intended such code
to work as you were expecting (and as I was once expecting), even if there
was once a Seaside version where it seemed to work OK. For me, it was when
I upgraded to a newer Seaside version that things seemed to have suddenly
become broken, and I naturally thought the newer Seaside version was broken.
I didn't realize (at first) that it was actually my own code that was broken
(i.e., written in a fashion that Seaside wasn't designed for). When you
initially wrote your code, you were probably using one of those earlier versions.<br>
