<DIV><FONT face="MS UI Gothic" size=2>Hello Mike,</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face="MS UI Gothic" size=2>This is a good news. Proj4 is being used
in many projects. Therefore updated</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face="MS UI Gothic" size=2>and current documentation is very much
welcomed.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face="MS UI Gothic" size=2>For the formats you wish to produce, I
suggest you use LaTeX. You can get</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face="MS UI Gothic" size=2>dvi, pdf, ps outputs for free! Also, there
are many converters to html and I</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face="MS UI Gothic" size=2>think xml (never used any).</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face="MS UI Gothic" size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face="MS UI Gothic" size=2>Do you have access to the original
documentation sources (not the pdf)?</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face="MS UI Gothic" size=2></FONT> </DIV>

documentation</DIV>
<DIV><BR></DIV>Hello, <BR><BR>With Frank Warmerdam's kind permission, and
after some email exchanges with Gerald Evenden, I have volunteered to take
over the documentation for Proj4. Sadly, this does not mean there will be a
new manual tomorrow, or even the next day. It will take me some time to gather
and integrate all the current information. With a little luck, I hope to have
something in place by the fall. The new documentation sources will be placed
in the proj4 cvs, and will therefore be accessible to everyone. The intent is
to produce pdf output, probably html, and possibly xml. The exact toolset that
will be used is not definite yet. I am not planning any translations from
English at this point. You will be welcome and even encouraged to volunteer to
translate once the originals are in CVS. <BR><BR>I welcome all your
suggestions, comments, etc. Please email me at the address below or email this
list, clearly indicating in the subject line that your message is for the
proj4 documentation. Please don't mix documentation comments with other types
of comments, I may miss them in that case. <BR><BR>Thanks very
much,<BR><BR>Mike<BR><X-SIGSEP>
