Hi.
I am currently undertaking a minor revision to the html documentation as
part of the pl2 release. One task has been to add the TODO List to the
online docs, which, since there's quite a few entries, I have limited the
page to those marked as 'high priority'.
This email is to ask if anyone has new items to put to the list ? (or any
amendments/deletions generally)?
Could I start the ball rolling with the following 2 wishes :-
1. Textfmt to be able to recognize and use ghostscript's Fontmap.
  [At the moment, users have to use the 'afm fonts' instead or create 
   links directly to the ghostscript font files, although there is a 
   perl script that at least does this now ].
2. The capability to configure HylaFAX via a web browser. And perhaps
   extended to cover fax status and statistics as well.
  [This was raised in the recent 'is HylaFAX's future a NT port?' thread
   where it was proposed by Davide Bolcioni as a way to build on Unixs'
   traditional strengths with the perceived strengths of MS NT].
I am realistic about the chances of this actually happening, but still
think it helpful to mention it in the TODO List (if agreed) as a 
direction to aim for. (The Marketing Department would perhaps hype it as
a 'roadmap').
Any comments?
Cheers,
