Hi, |
| 16 |
|
| 17 |
I have just started setting up the above mentioned project's homepage. |
| 18 |
|
| 19 |
Its available at: http://beaconeditor.org/ |
| 20 |
|
| 21 |
Mind you there is nothing much there, expect more in the coming week. |
| 22 |
We have been hard at work to get this in shape for _quite_ sometime |
| 23 |
(as many folks at Gentoo might have known). The development on this |
| 24 |
project has been incremental, a few times a year. Though its picking |
| 25 |
up momentum now. |
| 26 |
|
| 27 |
For now you can see the Docbook Plugin (At the demo link) more or less |
| 28 |
fully functional. GuideXML will be done in couple of days as well. The |
| 29 |
aim to setup a project homepage is to give a much needed user feedback |
| 30 |
and branded exposure to the project. There is a Trac setup there that |
| 31 |
needs some sprucing up. Mailing lists inbound as well. |
| 32 |
|
| 33 |
Hopefully with the rising needs of Gentoo and to make it possible to |
| 34 |
stay with the existing setup (and not have to edit the XML) this |
| 35 |
project can gain the traction. |
| 36 |
|
| 37 |
FWIW, this project is at your disposal. |
| 38 |
|

Kind Regards |
