just an observation: this thread appeared on comp.text.tex, and attracted the following response from one Donovan Rebbechi: On Thu, 30 Dec 1999 09:25:12 -0500, Drew McDermott wrote: >Is anyone supporting latex2html? Is there an "official" web site? This webpage: http://ctan.tug.org/tex-archive/support/latex2html/ includes all the information. Since it hasn't changed for almost two years, it's probably unmaintained. My suggestion is to dump it because (a) it looks like a dead horse (b) there are other tools that are as good or better. There are some alternatives you may want to consider. (he then goes on to suggest pdflatex, docbook authoring, and use of tex4ht -- this is in news article <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>) i guess my point is that you guys aren't getting your message out terribly well. most people go to ctan to look for the latest version of software, and since you never change the site i mirror into ctan, no-one who's not involved in the development ever sees any development that gets done. i _know_ work is being done, but since i don't have many latex2html users myself, i don't follow developments terribly carefully. so i'm not the person to evangelise for latex2html ... but i am at least in a position to point out problems to others. btw, my mirroring is Package=support/latex2html |=site=www-dsed.llnl.gov |=remote_dir=/files/programs/unix/latex2html do let me know if i have it wrong...
