Hi Albert,

as maintainer of poppler, you could talk about goals and non-goals of poppler.

E.g. the public vs internal API topic is a constant one. Maybe provide an example how people should constructively contribute to poppler and the using application to improve the situation.

Another one is that the user-facing apps get to see lots of the bug reports, which usually should go directly to the poppler bug tracker. Maybe providing a "pdftoppm" or "pdftocairo" example, how people could easily test whether poppler is at fault and not Okular/Evince.

There are presumably many more of these points, I just regularly see you posting and repeating these. Maybe a good opportunity to get this message through to a larger audience, instead of repeating yourself over and over again.

In any case thx for giving this talk.

Best regards,

Philipp

Anything people are interested in me talking about in particular?

It's only 15 minutes but I'll try to add it if you ask for something :)

Cheers,
