Sure. We'll add it to our todo list. Please keep us posted as to your progress. This is super exciting work you're doing! Well, there is not all that much more to say. I have been fixing minor glitches during the last days. I completely converted gutenberg-de yesterday and it is working fine

Sean, thanks for your quick reply. 1) Is there a deep reason why boldface fonts are not implemented? I figure they are not really relevant for wikis, but would be nice for some of the books. Unless there is something that complicates the matter I'm not seeing, I think I will add them (should
