This is an automated report about activity of our newsgroup
comp.os.linux.announce. It covers period between the 
previous report and the current one, ending 
on Mon Dec 15 00:05:01 CST 2003.

Note that we do not report the number of articles cancelled
after they got approved, because the cancellations are done
manually. Typically messages get cancelled by requests of
posters themselves.

Lastly, the statistics below are skewed towards higher numbers because
there are always some test messages from moderators themselves who
approve and reject them to make sure that our robomoderator functions
properly.

txt2pdf PRO 7.0 is a very important release in the
evolution of txt2pdf 6.x PRO and is the PRO version of
txt2pdf 7.x.  We distribute txt2pdf PRO only in
executable binaries, but under special circumstances,
source code can be provided.  This binary-only outlook
makes it easier to install, and simpler to use.  You
don't need PERL, nor any of the PERL modules or
libraries.  There are also new exciting features in
the PRO version that are not available in the regular
version.

txt2pdf PRO offers you all the features of txt2pdf 7.x
plus these important features: 

NEW: possibility to send the final pdf via ftp to your
web site
possibility to create compressed pdf with every
executable distribution
embedded true type font support  
annotation in the first page (you can set also the
position (x,y) of the annotation icon) 
You can use colours, fonts, links, etc with your
personal or standard tags 
begin1 to change the background of the first page and
bgdesignlast to change the background of the last page

performance:
medium: doesn't convert word like http://, ftp:,
mailto:, ... to links
high: ignores fontmark and color settings  
Form Feed (^L) support 
-skip1ff option to skip the first form feed 
the possibility to set the top and left margins 
the possibility to create compressed PDFs and to set
the compression factor. txt2pdf PRO will compress also
the embedded true type fonts. 
mailto option: the possibility to send to the
specified user (cc and bcc ar supported) the created
PDF like attach. It's possible to specify the title,
the body (also multiline), the SMTP host, the from
user (at the moment you can use these features only
with the Windows executable version and the perl
source code) 
inside layers (background and foreground) you can use
the same txt2pdf features plus
#!image#;;;;;;;;#!/image# to add RGB jpeg images
#!link#;;;;#!/link# to add links

Subject: In Goa (India), we meet by the beach. 

GOA is one of the popularly-visited tourist destinations of India. Our 
GNU/Linux users' group decided to shift this month's event (and possibly 
future ones too) to a venue by our scenic coast. We meet-up at the canteen 
of the  Kala Academy, an arts and performing centre just outside the 
state-capital of Panjim.

Holidayers in this part of the globe are more than welcome! 

ILUG-Goa, the GNU/Linux network, meets in Goa this Saturday, Dec 27, 4 pm. 
In keeping with our plans for meeting at more scenic locales, we will be 
meeting up at Campal this week. Someone suggested we meet up at a beach 
shack -- who knows, we might. Our friendly LUG's motto is shifting to: 
"You pay for what you eat and the tea; the beach and the technology come 
free."

Talks for this week: 

        LinuxBIOS project and a made-in-Goa Grub patch (by
        Yunus Shaikh and team, from Ponda)

        XFCE and why it appeals to me -- Prof Anil Seth, 
        head of IT Department, PCC College, Verna.

        Mario Alvares -- Saraswati: one-mind. An information
        sharing system for schools in Goa, through connecting
        them via the Internet. A low-cost solution that
        enables member schools to share knowledges and 
        resources with others. 
        http://www.knowledgeinitiatives.org/saraswati

        Discussion (Animesh Nerurkar): plans for promoting
        GNULinux to Khandola, a local college.
