Current developments efforts are centered on the printing framework, I already planned the framework and i'm starting to write the code.
The printing framework is very solid, well structured and very flexible, as it will allow to write the document once and output in many different formats (via plugins), here is a snip of his structure:
odkDocument
**odkPage : odkDrawArea
****odkDrawArea
****odkImage
The main component is the odkDrawArea which has basic drawing functions like lines, boxes, arcs, text, color, and more. But all the information is stored on a single format which can be converted with *ease* to XML, HTML, PS, PDF.
The structure is awesome, it was created with the tought of "Creating a application printing standar for UNIX" in mind.
Check the home page on ODK-REP for more information of more development features.

As a side note, the odkDrawArea class is now finished, *pew*, that was very fast for over 540 lines of code.
It does compile, now i need to test it and setup the packages and CVS for everything... o well, more fun..... errrr.... work for me.
