Re: About Table header

Hi Simon,

Yes, you are right. the right branch is
http://www.abisource.com/viewvc/abiword/branches/gsoc2012table_headers/

Can you share with me some information about your big changes to the
table code? That would be great help to me to dig into the code (
Whether I can be selected by GSOC or not, it is a good opportunity for
me to learning coding, thanks)

Joe
