Somebody who knows, likes, and uses gv would be a much better person for the job, since I also own a bunch of other packages, some quite large (openoffice.org). If some other person was able to focus their time on gv, I think that would be a win for users of the package. This however is my opinion, and isn't necessarily indicative of how changes to the gv package will play out. Dan
