Great work.
1) Despite all the rave about open office, I dare find anyone to say it's as
open as abiword - In OO I don't see any developer logs, bug counts, feature
request scores, or even roadmaps. The really "open" projects (both gnome and
kde) have taught me plenty about how to effectively develop software.
2) Any word on AbiShow? with Flash export? please!
3) re rtf vs doc - we now see the most widely used attachment format is pdf
(since most attachments are really for reading). So since you already have
more or less perfected rtf, the pdf export should be at top of the list. dot
docs are dead.
4) Don't really understand the difference between the gnome and gtk versions -
maybe you could include an explanation somewhere.
5) Abi and porn - well, sorry to say, but porn is where all the money is so
maybe riches will come to abiword :)
I really enjoy the Weekly News.
John
