    Dear Michael,
                  I've really valued your contributions to AbiWord and would
    really like to hear why you object to this. As you may have
    guessed I believe that this is the best way forward. libgsf
    gains us so much additional functionality and glib is also
    needed for other very cool features I want in AbiWord (like
    full SVG support).

    Maybe we no longer share the same vision for what we want AbiWord to be?

    In any case, thanks very much for all your contributions and all the fun
    we've had :-)

    Cheers

    Martin
