Tyler,<div><br></div><div>On the LaTeX side of things, I'm not a pro tex-er so we hired someone to format the Marchionni and Dunsford papers. Did they turn out OK with respect to formatting? Our $50 on Odesk.com saved us hours of trying to learn LaTeX. Is that too lazy? I'd be happy to sponsor some of the other papers as well... <div>
<br></div><div>As for updating case studies, I'd argue to let them go as is if they previously went through peer review successfully (as these all have). It's often an unfortunate byproduct of our academic peer review system that papers get published a year or two after the work was done. Though if we are clever we can try to reduce that lag time for the OSGeo Journal.</div>
