Dev for gpdf

Detailed description:
Since before gnome 1.2 I used, build, test, and tried debugging desktop on Linux/x86 and Solaris/sparc. I 
also rpm packaged gnome 1.4/2.0 for Solaris 2.8 (http://www.rcsnet.net/gnome.html).
When the Robin Slomkowski's nautilus tinderbox started (for a while) I mirrored it on 
nautilus-tinderbox.rcsnet.net (FR). 
Since a year I work as a freelance consultant and have a little time for greater involvement in Gnome. 
I Choosed gpdf module as there was still many to do.
List of my work on gpdf is in ChangeLog
http://cvs.gnome.org/bonsai/cvsblame.cgi?file=gpdf/ChangeLog&rev=&root=/cvs/gnome
and also in a more synthetic web page
http://www.rcsnet.net/freeware.html#gpdf

Other comments:
---------------
As I said before I'am now a freelancer (or at least I try) and I keep a time slice for OpenSource activities. 
Gnome is my prefered choice and I think it's now time for me to have a closer interrest on  what is/do the 
Gnome Foundation for better involvement in OpenSource.
Nevertheless thanks and keep up the good work. 

Remi
