Hi Vasile,
We're about to start a major overhall of our formatter. This
process will give us tables, text frames, positioned images and other
objects, footnotes, endnotes and maybe margin notes.
You can read the design notes for this next stage in our development
in the attached email.I've started by writing the fp_ContainerObject base class. The next pahse will be to refactor our existing container classes to derive from this base class. This is all rather high level stuff right now. I think that until the basics steps outlined in the document are done it might be better to find another way to contribute to abiword. Once the basic ground work is laid we could certainly use some help in implementing footnotes, tables etc. Maybe you could look through bugzilla to find a bug that bothers you and fix it to get started with?
