Hi!
I just had a look at the latest WP's.
However, I have trouble printing them.
The WP is obviously written in troff.
Does anybody have access to it's sources?
I'd like to run them through groff in order
to create dvi and from this a better postscript.

Thanx!
Volker

Only postscript and printed versions of the drafts are
made available officially, because it is difficult
to modify them accidently or on purpose. (PDF versions
have also been made available, but since Acrobat now
allows you to modify PDF files easily, that may change.)

The nightmare for standards people is that different
versions will be in circulation, all claiming to be
the official version.

I understand that. So, how could I make the standard people
produce a better postscript? Could the people in the commitee
perhaps offer a DVI-Version too?



Greetings!
