Re: Is openamf dying?

I started to create some texinfo documentation a couple of years ago, then I 
lost momentum when my company switched projects and I wasn't using OpenAMF any 
more (mea culpa).

In any case, there's a start of some documentation there that might be useful if 
someone was interested - it would just need to be updated and fleshed out a bit. 
Just look for a file called "openamf.texi" in the "docs" directory of the 
openamf source (note that you need to check the project out with CVS to see the 
document - it's not currently included in the releases).

You can use texi2html to convert the file to HTML. That's a pretty standard tool 
on most *nix systems, and I think there's a version for cygwin if you're using 
Windows. Texinfo itself is not hard to work with (you could probably fake it 
just by looking at the file in its current state) and it produces the standard 
GNU documentation format that we all know and love. ;)

If anyone decides to pick this up and has questions about it, feel free to drop 
me a line.

Cheers,
Darin
