I have asked Laura to write a Windows GUI for liblouisxml that could be
part of the distrribution. This has been discussed on the list, but as
far as I know nobody else has anything they want to share. Please give
Laura whatever help you can. She is an experienced C and C++ programmer
and is trying to get bavck to professional hacking after a long
iinterval.
Thanks,
John
