I don't use GD any more, but it is my impression that not everyone wants a 52 MB library nor Python scripting for their graphics rendering. I have Cc'ed the GD team whom I suspect might be interested in taking over this library - if they are not interested (but please do allow them some time to respond), then for my sake it can be dropped. - Jonas -- * Jonas Smedegaard - idealist & Internet-arkitekt * Tlf.: +45 40843136 Website: http://dr.jones.dk/ * Sponsorship: https://ko-fi.com/drjones [x] quote me freely [ ] ask before reusing [ ] keep private
