Before-floats are similar to footnotes, so yes, that part will be (a lot) simpler. I didn't do much thinking about side-float so it's difficicult for me to do an estimate. Anyway, your proposal sounds good. On 20.04.2006 00:30:52 Vincent Hennebert wrote: > Jeremias Maerki a écrit : > > I don't see

Jeremias, I think this is most reasonable. In any case I whish to contribute as mush as possible. I'm thinking about setting up a page on the FOP-wiki where I would put up the goals for my proposal. That way I could give the link when submitting my application. Also, I will be in Europe in

We can set it up so the basic auto table layout is the main goal and then we add some optional additional goals. That should help making sure we don't set the bar unrealistically high if we can't do a good estimate. I'm glad to hear you want to contribute beyond the SoC boundaries. It's good to ge
