[NTG-context] meeting not online

2022-09-14 Thread Henning Hraban Ramm via ntg-context

Hi everyone who was interested in participating in the meeting remotely,

I just recognized I forgot to include some addresses in the participants 
address, thus some information didn’t reach the adressees.


The DSL connection here in Dreifelden is very weak and unreliable – even 
if streaming works sometimes, usually it’s just enough for email.


Yesterday we streamed for one guy via mobile connections, but those who 
offered their phones for it have now mostly used up their data volume 
and need the rest for themselves.


We suspected the Wifi to be the bottleneck, but when I bought and 
installed an ethernet cable, it wouldn’t get better.


I’m very sorry, but we can’t keep that up.

Hraban

That would be great. Just send it to my personal address hra...@fiee.net

We had long discussions about online participation in the meeting. The regulars 
like the “intimate” atmosphere, and that doesn’t work online. We don’t want to 
stream anything publicly, but at least allow “known” members of the community 
to participate remotely.
We’ll further discuss this within the CG board, I guess.

Tug and other user groups sponsor projects. In the beginning of Luatex 
there were projects defined (the bulk of code conversion from pascalweb 
to cweb + some extensions were a project), but the oriental tex project 
also contributed. Mplib and metapost 2 coding were sponsored by groups 
too. The crited project made it possible to integrate luajittex and 
luatex and it also supports the rewrite of the bibliography subsystem in 
mkiv (in fact this is the only time that writing related tex code is 
sponsored).


Currently tug sponsors projects like texgyre and swiglib. The text and 
math font project(s) are mandate for the (future) success of tex and 
need substantial funding the upcoming decade too. We made estimates 
during BT but expect most to be covered by usergroups, possible as long 
as they have paying members. Groups that systematically contribute are 
tug, dante, ntg, cstug and gust. Afaik the context group is considering 
participation too.


The context group is in principle an independent entity (same level as 
tex user groups) but can also support projects. For me, people meeting 
(and making sure they can meet and discuss) is also a project.

[NTG-context] meeting

2014-06-26 Thread Hans Hagen

Hi,

In case you didn't consider it yet ... in a couple of months we have the 
context meeting and this is a perfect opportunity to meet those involved 
in development and support. You can participate in discussions about 
upcoming developments, express wishes, get sneak previews, get your 
problems solved (meetings are quite efficient for that).


Personally I like those meetings because it gives a face to users and 
also gives an idea in what direction to move.  Also, tex related 
meetings are kind of special (beware, one can get hooked to them).


If you have ideas for topics, let us know asap,

Hans

[NTG-context] Meeting NTG saturday 18 november 2006

2006-11-13 Thread Willi Egger
Dear list user,

The Dutch TeX users group organizes a meeting on saturday 18 november.

Location: Highschool Helicon, Zeist, The Netherlands.

Theme: The next generation TeX - a glance on the future

At the this moment active development takes place for the successor of 
pdfTeX. During next year this engine will be dirstributed.
Next to this, steps are undertaken to improve the integration of the 
graphical possibilities of Metapost.in TeX.
A bunch of new fonts are in the pipeline which can replace existing 
(free) font-collections: extended, improved, OTF versions.
There are different initiatives for enhancing TeX and related programs 
e.g. giving them a more modern, up-to-date interface.
Further one can see, that TeX is moving form the front-end into the 
background, so that users do not even know that the final work is 
performed with TeX.

The mentioned aspects will be discussed and presented during the 
upcoming NTG-meeting.

The NTG would like to invite you to join us.

Global programme:
09 :30 arrival
10:00 opening, presentations/discussion
11:15 coffee break
11:45 presentations/discussion
12:45-13.30 lunch
13:30 presentations/discussion
15:00 Thea break
15:30 presentations/discussion
16:30 closing

17:30 Diner in one of the restaurants in Zeist

Issues to be presented:
luatex: development of the next generation pdfTeX
opentype: the first three delivered replacement fonts from the polish foundry
metapost: on its way to full integration into TeX
epspdfgui: Good-bye to obscure commandline programs
processing in the background ...: how Tex moves behind the scene
pgf:  replacement of macros containing graphics
TeXlive: the in's en out's of preparing a distribution


Description of the location and how to get there: 
http://www.hhelicon.nl/index2.html

If you would like to join in, please send an e-mail to the NTG secretary: 
[EMAIL PROTECTED]

Kind regards

Willi Egger
Secretary NTG
