Hello Erich,

sorry that answering to this took a while. Holidays were in between. Had
some
work to do for the presentation at OOP. I saw that you will be there, too.
Maybe
you would like to drop by at our desk for a talk or so? I also had to do
some
discussing and persuading considering this matter.

Well, we are ready to contribute the whole current source of Planty to the
Community now. I just hope that you are still interested and also hope that
the
time that we have left will be enough for Planty to make it into 2.1.

Maybe you could give me some more information on how we go on?
I remember that I should use some official channel for contribution. How is
that?
For conformity I will change the license of the code to CPL. Though as I
stated
earlier, I am using the dtd parser which is licensed under LGPL. You should
tell
me how to handle this issue.

Maybe you could also tell me what the credit for contribution would be
like?

greetings, alf
