Well, you are still allowed to comment after Friday. You can send comemnts 
anytime. I've seen comments by David Wheeler from last October (well 
outside the "request for public commentary" period). All I meant is that 
right now is a very good time to talk to them. But the OASIS TC is always 
open for public comments.

Cheers,

font crashes

I solved the Pango font crashes related to Font descriptions not having 
a family name specified (the "1979" font bug).  I'm not sure what other 
bugs it'll fix, but I made a testcase for Pango and opened a bug for 
them.  I set up code to work around it, or at least avoid the crash in a 
worse-case situation.

printing comments

Does anyone object to having comments added to postscript print-outs?  
For example:

...
%%Page: 1 1
90 rotate
0.80000000 -0.80000000 scale
gsave [1.0000000 0.0000000 0.0000000 1.0000000 0.0000000 0.0000000] 
concat
%! begin '#path4209'
0.0000000 0.0000000 0.0000000 setrgbcolor
...
372.04724 70.866136 lineto
stroke
%! end '#path4209'
%! begin '#path4210'
0.0000000 0.0000000 0.0000000 setrgbcolor
0.68750000 setlinewidth

I'm doing it right how to help me track down a printing bug, but I 
thought it might be fun to leave turned on?

I've added mental's idea and linked it under the "Developer

Well, I made it optional, defaults to "off".  :)

Open Clip Art Library Release 0.10 Announcement

*PLEASE FORWARD*

Open Clip Art Library Release 0.10 Announcement

February 1, 2005 UTC — Release 0.10 of the Open Clip Art Library 
(www.openclipart.org) is now available for download on-line as an individual 
package:

     http://www.openclipart.org/downloads/0.10/openclipart-0.10.tar.gz

     http://www.openclipart.org/downloads/0.10/openclipart-0.10.zip

This new package is 23MB and contains 3207 unique user-submitted files in 
several categories such as geography, symbols, holidays and people. You may also 
visit the Open Clip Art Library site at www.openclipart.org to browse or search 
all of the clip art imagery in our database and download files individually.

What is significant in this release:

1) Our largest section of clip art, the flags collection, has been moved to the 
signs & symbols category.
2) We've also collected St. Valentine's Day clip art images for the upcoming 
holiday.
3) Improvements to our tools and processes continue behind the scenes.

For the month of February, we are also trying to collect images related to 
"Black History Month." Please submit SVG images related to history of not only 
African-Americans, but of black history around the world.

Please visit www.openclipart.org, contribute your clip art images, and download

wiki spam

It looks like 82.194.62.17 and 193.188.105.16 automatically spam our
wiki, they spammed pages minutes after my reversals. I reverted them
several times, but then quit, so they're likely spammed again now.
Maybe it's time to change the password, make it random for each page,
and less easy to extract from the text. And in any case, please ban
those IPs.
