I agree with you, Jordi. Unfortunately, EAZen runs AbiWord on Linux, so he doesn't exactly get to see firsthand what changes get made on QNX or Win32. I just saw your new font-preview today at work (I have an NT4 machine now). I must say, it looks really nice. Uwog attaches lots of eye-candy to his emails, and eye-candy gets noticed quickly by reporters and users alike. Finally, most of the sites where the AWN gets read (besides AbiSource.com) are Unix-related sites (LinuxToday, GnomeDesktop, LWN, ...). In this regard, it sort-of makes sense to have a Unix bias to the reporting. Your work is *very* much appreciated by myself and the other developers. Your work should definitely get more credit in the AWN. I suppose you could help that happen by attaching more screenshots and writing longer commit emails, since a lot of us don't have access to Win32 machines to try things out on. It's just a thought. I've tried out the April 1 Win32 nightly build today. It looks great! Cheers, Dom __________________________________________________ Do you Yahoo!? Yahoo!
