[Journal] Vol 6. looking good...

[Tyler Mitchell]

Oh yeah, I meant to say that we can do latex to html as well, though it might need a bit of loving.  Conceivably it is just an extra parameter in the make command.  So hopefully you haven't gone done that path manually already ;)

Also note that I've long wanted to make a snazzier layout and have the templates for an old Free Software Magazine latex design here:
http://svn.osgeo.org/osgeo/journal/tools/fsm_starter_kit/issue_00/tex_stuff/FSM_issue_00.pdf

They have an interesting build environment in there too.

Anyway, all that just to say I have some longer term goals but we'll still take it on issue at a time.
