Hi Dennis,
 
Sharing the code is awesome, it's just not likely that it would make it into 
the production code stream without either being cross-platform or having 
equivalent functionality under the other supported languages.
 
There has been some thought given to setting up a "community" area to 
facilitate code sharing, but I haven't heard anything about it recently.  In 
absence of that, I'll have to see whether we can set up some kind of "code 
samples" area on the Trac wiki where you could write up a quick explanation and 
then attach a zipfile with the code.
 
This community is incredibly active, but I think we need to understand that the 
MapGuide Open Source project is not run by anyone but the community.  Yes, 
Autodesk still does the majority of the coding (though we are seeing more 
activity from others recently), but it's a true open source project and its 
strength is going to be measured by the willingness of its users to get 
involved in testing, development, documentation and, in general, innovations 
like what you have done with PDF output.
 
Jason

I have gotten the impression from reading other pages on OSGeo that this forum 
does not like submissions, of code, that do not meet their requirements for 
portability etc, etc. So I am hesitant to provide more. I really do not wish to 
get them upset :-)  Maybe they don't mind a snippet at a time ....????
