Thanks for the very nice e-mail!

I'll forward ti to the original Xournal author as well.
About the Maemo 5 port, I am working, slowly, on it.
What's really slowing me down is the incompatibility between my Dell Mini 9 and Xephir+OpenGL :(

I wanted to also release a Diablo version, but well...not much spare time left.
We'll see.

In the meanwhile...thank you again.

Thank you for making my life so much easier! For those
wondering how I do it. From Xournal menu <file><annotat pdf>,
which is what most of my forms come in. Insert text and sign as
needed, then <file><export to pdf>. The built in pdf viewer
doesn't display it properly, but Evince does and my notebook
pdf viewer does as well. At the end of the day I connect my
tablet to my notebook via the the usb cable and print out the
forms I have filled out. I could also email them, connect via
bluetooth, etc. Most of the forms I deal with I'm required to
keep the original, so that works for me.
Best Regards,

If not, you'd also make many happy by uploading the chinook version,
which works awesomely, as-is, to diablo extras-devel. :)

:p

You're right, but the issue is that I started working some time ago,
on the Diablo version by adding a few features.
Mistakenly I was doing it on the original code base and I didn't have
a copy (yeah I didn't setup a CVS repo at that time, stupid me).

So right know I am actually against the GPL, I think, as I don't have
the source code for that specific version available.

To fix this, I have to make the current messed-up code, working and
repackage it for both Chinook and Diablo.

And this takes time, and so far I haven't had much after I moved to London.
