| Re: [asciidoc-wg] AsciiDoc implementation for the Java/JVM ecosystem / project proposal |
Hi all, > 6. Conversion to PDF I suspect this is deliberately last on the agenda because it's not time yet. I'm taking the bait anyway... Given the state of the AsciiDoc-to-PDF workflow (XML-FO, dblatex, CSS3 paged media, asciidoctor-pdf): is there a plan to address PDF generation at a WG level, rather than on an implementation-by-implementation basis? As an enthusiastic AsciiDoc user, I find the PDF flow to be the most fragmented, least consistent, and most frustrating part of the ecosystem right now. If each language stack follows a different technical path towards PDF generation I think it will be a missed opportunity. I have a conflicting meeting today but will be following the mailing list eagerly. thanks, Graeme On 2020-06-16 8:00 a.m., Alexander Schwartz wrote: > Reminder: > For those you want to join me on a Jitsi video conference call today: it > starts in 2 hours from now. > > When: June 16th, 17:00 UTC - Convert to your time zone: > https://www.thetimezoneconverter.com/?t=17%3A00%20pm&tz=UTC > Where: https://meet.jit.si/AsciiDocImplementationForTheJvmJune16 > > Best regards, > Alexander > > On 10.06.2020 17:08, Alexander Schwartz wrote: >> Hi AsciiDoc enthusiasts, >> >> the AsciiDoc WG is an exciting effort to standardize the language and >> to allow the ecosystem to grow on the basis of a common specification. >> >> After talking to Dan Allen I volunteered to write a project proposal >> for an AsciiDoc implementation for the Java/JVM ecosystem.
