Hi Bill, I'm familiar with a lot of it, yeah.

The tools needed are out there -- what's necessary now is a blueprint for putting things together in a way that makes sense, supports standards, and is relatively easy to do. --Kynn On Thursday, March 6, 2003, at 04:18 PM, Bill Haneman wrote: > Kynn asked about open-source content transformation stuff... > > Kynn, are you familier with FOP, Batik, and various content > transformation work that is part of the Apache project? > > The Apache project includes a fair bit of transformation, content > formatting, and content delivery stuff now, and it's open-source and > based on a proven platform and open standards.
