> I'm a developer on the mainline Ghostscript project. Raph recently 
> pointed out your project to me. Congratulations on taking on the 
> unenviable task of maintaining the ancient 5.50 GPL version!
>
> We're about, at long last, to do a new GPL release, based on the 
> current 6.5 code branch (GS_6_5 in cvs). I wanted to solicit your input 
> on the state of the code and the post-release maintainability of the 
> various patches available. We're aware that we've somewhat neglected 
> the free software side, and would like to do a better job in the 
> future.  In general, we'd like to move the various gs-related projects 
> closer together, so would like to hear anything you have to contribute 
> on the topic.

> If you're not on gs-devel, please also check Raph's prerelease

> devel/2001-May/000475.html for the current plan.
