Hi, Thomas Esser is close to releasing teTeX 3.00 and asks for a new version of pdftex with all open bugs (!) fixed. Is there anything besides #242 and xpdf 3.00pl3 that should go in?

Hi, Hartmut has made a lot of patches, concerning mainly map file handling and char protrusion. Hartmut can tell better whether these patches should be in 1.20c. Beside, I am also working on ttf support. Don't know when they will be done, and whether this change should go to the new release of tetex. When will tetex-3.0 be released?

When will tetex-3.0 be released?
I'll hopefully make a new release candidate this weekend (dvips updates are pending) and if all goes well the 3.0 release at the end of this month (i.e. a week later). So, not much time left... In the past, I did promisse teTeX-3.0 for "sometime in 2004", so I am already late. Thomas

Patch #242 is only fixing the recent "< "-bug (it's already in 1.20c, runs ok). Thanks a lot to Martin for 1.20c! There isn't more map related stuff yet. And the protrusion patch #257 would be much too early for pdftex in teTeX, it's only experimental, needs heavy checking (i can't spot an error, but i don't have the overview what hz or this TeX list business with discardables does), only Thanh can tell, then maybe put it into pdfxtex first. I'll try to make a pdfxtex.ch3... Regards, Hartmut
