[pal-developer] PAL community platform

[Olivier ERTZ]

We are pleased to announce the start of PAL community platform and we 
invite you to visit http://pal.heig-vd.ch.

The major focus is to federate and bring together forces to maintain, 
offer support and follow innovative new developments in the field of 
labeling through PAL opensource library. Currently, a stable release of 
PAL automated label placement library is available, and the source code 
can be downloaded from the website. Also a start of documentation is 
ready to help new integrations and developements on the core library. A 
Trac instance was setup to manage the project 
(http://geosysin.iict.ch/pal-trac).

Notice there are currently two integrations of PAL : for gvSIG and for 
QuantumGIS. Also, an integration for MapWindow is in progress.

If you plan a new integration or enhancements on the core library, feel 
free to post on this mailing-list your needs, comments and ideas.

Best regards,
