The RTF->LaTeX link (at the top and the middle of the page) is broken.

This is a timely topic for me. I am working feverishly on a perl script
to convert RTF to XML. Once a document is in XML, it is pretty simple to
convert it to LyX or LaTeX, whichever you wanted.

This got me to wondering if abiword will actually import Word docs, and
if it then could export them as XML docs. This would make my script
redundant. 

But I was also wondering if there wasn't a need for a script to convert
RTF directly to LyX. I believe there is. Are there any perl scripters out
there who would like to work on such a project with me? After all, there
is the perl script that converts LaTeX to HTML. I believe this script is
well-maintained. When I looked at it, it was 10,000 lines long. Why not
a similar project for an RTF to LyX convertor?
