I have not got a record of any mail in this list for ages. 1) Are the people on this list still interested in successors to TeX? 2) Has DANTE progressed any further with the setting up of a project to develop such a system, other than setting up this list? Just asking!

You are quite correct; this list _has_ been quiet of late, but things have been happening in the background... >>> 1) Are the people on this list still interested in successors to TeX? Most definitely! >>> 2) Has DANTE progressed any further with the setting up of a project >>> to develop such a system, other than setting up this list? Not yet a project per se, but this will undoubtedly be discussed at the Dante '93 meeting at Chemnitz in March which I very much hope to attend. >>> Just asking! Without wishing to in any sense jump the gun, I think I can say with some confidence that there will shortly be some announcements on this list; Joachim Lammarsch is unwell at the moment, and Rainer is very tied up with other (equally important) matters such as LaTeX-3, NFSS-2, and earning a living! However, we are working towards some way of reducing the load on Rainer, and I confidently expect there to be renewed activity before long. Philip Taylor, RHBNC
