7James Clark has written (11 Aug 1997): 8>Frankly I don't known when I'm going to be able to do another groff 9>release. At the moment, I have no time, no Unix machine, and not a lot 10>of interest in doing it. If anybody else wants to take over groff 11>maintenance, that would be fine with me. Last time I asked in 12>gnu.groff.bug, nobody volunteered.
| 12Finally, there are new maintainers for groff. Mailing lists and a CVS 13repository are available also. See the file README for details. Not 14all reported bug could be fixed, so please send mails again if 15something is still not working.

14This means groff is an orphan. It is looking for a maintainer.
| 17Most of the installation problems should have vanished now (most 18notably the $(tmac_wrap) bug).

| 20There is now a man page called groff_man.man which documents the 21basics of the -man macros. It has been originally written by Susan 22G. Kleinmann <sgk@debian.org>. 23 24A (still incomplete) groff reference manual in texinfo format 25originally contributed by Trent A. Fisher <trent@gnurd.portland.or.us>. 26 27me.man and msafer.man have been renamed to groff_me.man 28resp. groff_msafer.man for consistency. 29 30Default strings for macros in doc-common resp. tmac.an no longer 31contain the word `UNIX'. 32 33groff should now be Y2k safe (fixes contributed by Paul Eggert 34<eggert@twinsun.com>). 35 36Following the GNU standards, groff will now use the prefix 37`/usr/local/' as the default instead of replacing an existent groff 38binary. 39 40groff, troff, nroff, and pic now support the -U flag to activate unsafe 41behaviour (without -msafer); the -S flag for using the -msafer macros 42is now the default. 43 44Grohtml 45------- 46 47This is a new output device for producing HTML output contributed by 48Gaius Mulley <gaius@glam.ac.uk>. It is still very alpha but has been 49included into the distribution so that a lot of people have a chance 50to test it. Bug reports are highly welcome. 51 52Grolj4 53------ 54 55Duplex printing support has been contributed by Jeffrey Copeland 56<jeff@opennt.com>. 57 58Soelim 59------ 60 61Added -I option for defining include paths (patch contributed by Peter 62Miller <peterm@jna.com.au>). 63 64Gxditview 65--------- 66 67Fallback resources added (patch contributed by Larry Jones 68<larry.jones@sdrc.com>). 69 70Will now support 8 gray levels. 71 72mm 73-- 74 75New version 1.32 (contributed by Joergen Haegg <jh@axis.com>). 76 77VERSION 1.11 78============ 79

16Complete documentation for pic is now in the file doc/pic.ms. It was 17contributed by Eric S. Raymond, <esr@thyrsus.com>, who is emphatically 18*not* volunteering to take over groff as he is way overworked with 19half a dozen other projects. 20 21VERSION 1.10 22============ 23
