-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Hi,
I have so far been very content with your management of the project, Adam. I see the value of an extension of scope to other formats (though I almost exclusively use PDFs), however I am somewhat torn concerning the prospective uncertainty connected to a change of project leadership. In any case I will naturally continue maintaining Debian and Ubuntu packages, unless this is explicitly unwanted. On a rather humorous note, a change as the one planned might encourage changing the project name. Unfortunately, the usual suspects, such as QView, QViewer, QtView, QtViewer seem to be taken, so I suggest "QDV", the Qt Document Viewer. ;-) Summing up: I don't use ps and djvu, but I think widening the scope of the program in this direction is sensible in principle.
