1st LATEX2HTML Workshop
Darmstadt,
15 February 1997
Thanks again to Jens Lippmann and members of the LiPS Design Team for organising this meeting;
also to the Fachbereich Informatik at Darmstadt for use of their facilities.
This was an opportunity for many of the current LATEX2HTML developers to
actually meet for the first time; rather than communication by exchange
of electronic mail messages.
- Nikos Drakos talked about the early development of LATEX2HTML, while...
- ...
Ross Moore, Jens Lippmann and Marek Rouchal described recent improvements.
- Michel Goossens presented a list of difficulties encountered with earlier
versions of LATEX2HTML, and aspects requiring improvement.
Almost all of these now have been addressed in the V97.1 release,
so far as is possible within the bounds inherent in the HTML 3.2 standard.
- Kristoffer Rose showed how it is possible to create GIF89 animations
from pictures generated by TEX or LATEX, using the Xy-pic graphics
package and extensions, developed by himself and Ross Moore.
Also present were representatives from the DANTE e.V. Praesidium and
members of the development team.
In all it was a very pleasant and constructive meeting.
