Informal FOP Users/Developers/Sponsors Meeting
Dear FOP Users and Developers, I will be visiting Basis Technology [1] in Cambridge, Massachusetts during the week of Oct 28 through Nov 1, who has sponsored my work on FOP, especially the Complex Script support. Basis has agreed to host an informal meeting of parties interested in FOP, including users, developers, or sponsors or potential sponsors. I would like to determine if there is an interest in having people attend a half to full day meeting during that week, which would be organized along an *unconference* style. Some of the topics that I would like to talk about include: - future work on complex script support, e.g., fixing bidi issues, adding additional script support; - PDF extensions, such as support for inter- and intra-page transitions and layers (optional content groups) - how to increase interest and use of FOP - how to increase levels of sponsorship on the core work of maintaining and enhancing FOP Please let me know if you are interested in attending, which day of that week would be best for you, and any additional topics you would like to explore. I realize this is rather short notice, but let's see if there is sufficient interest. Regards, Glenn [1] http://www.basistech.com/

Too bad this is in Mass, and not NY. I would have loved to attend.

Are there any plans to improve both the code base and engaging developers/sponsors?

Re: Informal FOP Users/Developers/Sponsors Meeting
Thanks for asking. There were insufficient responders to justify a meeting. Many of the users/developers are in Europe. Perhaps something can be organized in the not-too-distant future that could bring together FOP Devs and Users.
