The GNU Ghostscript project is the same thing at GPL Ghostscript. > Slackware has changed to ESP because it brings more > drivers and has a better integration with CUPS Well, the drawback is that you end up being further removed from the origin of the source code. The benefit is that someone else does (a lot of) the integration for you. Does ESP Ghostscript include the patches for Japanese support, out of interest? What are the differences between the ESP Ghostscript package and our package based on GNU Ghostscript (which has lots of patches)? Which direction should Fedora Core take for ghostscript? Now is a good time to discuss that, since we're overdue to jump to version 8. Tim. */
