    Hello,

    [Assumes none of this has been done, and somewhat
     from memory as I do not have AbiWord's source handy]

    Later this week I would like to update the peer PNG
    library to the latest release. Anybody mind?

    I would like to update my fix for bug 1750 which
    to do properly requires moving a function in
    <platform>App.cpp that is mostly cut-n-paste across the
    platforms into a parent subclass (which I believe
    AP_App.cpp is perfect for) with probably a new virtual
    method to handle the differences. I'm probably not
    to clear, but have a look at the bug to see my Win32
    specific patch and you can see more or less what I
    am talking about. My reason for mentioning this is
    there is a chance I will make a mistake and accidently
    break all non Windows builds, so I want to be sure you
    are aware of my intentions and it is ok to do so before
    I begin.
    [This may or may not also fix bug ?1444 ? 1440? or so
     that is marked a duplicate.]

    The only other item I have planned is to refactor AbiPaint
    into a more OO form (Base XP plugin class that I can
    use for all my plugins that add menu items, AbiPaint
    plugin that does XP neutral stuff (most of it), and
    either platform specific classes to implement Fork+Exec
    or a couple UT classes with an XP header and platform
    specific implementation). This shouldn't have an effect
    on anyone, but while I am doing this, I would be interested
    in ideas about starting on menu localization.

    Thank you,
