I would like to concentrate on the file structure the next four weeks and
get that nailed down in San Diego. This has the top priority.
It includes the clear definition how many internal modules we want to have
(e.g. Font handling, Print media handling, constraints).
I hope we'll make some progress with the print media handling dtd module,
which then can be evaluated in detail in San Diego.
If there is time before and during the conference - and that depends how
many people will contribute - I'd like to prepare the building of a few
sample device resident fonts.
I'll wait whether some other issues will pop up in the distributor.
The closer we come to a sort of full scaled format, the better we can
cooperate with other standards like the PODi or some Linux activities. I
want to show and prove our readiness and interest here.
The closer we come to a sort of full scaled format, the better we can talk
about details to developers for an optimal implementation. That is another
area, where I start reserving some time in my mind. The UPDF group has
pointed out several times that we want to provide active help during
implementation of the format into drivers.

Norbert Schade
