Cool, thanks.

Sure.  I've been looking at a lot of the relevant code.  Judging by our
discussions and looking at the ChangeLog entries for adding border-color, it
looks like some of the tasks are:

1. Add border-style and border-width <property>s to spec-dump and add/merge
the relevant dumped files

2. Add parallel functions to fo_expr_border_color_eval() and
eval_border_color_expr() to expr/fo-expr-eval.[ch] for border-style and
border-width

3. Add similar code to the border-color patch I submitted to
fo_context_util_border_resolve() for border-style and border-width

4. Add lines for border-width and border-style to property/fo-property-eval.c
(? - spec-dump doesn't generate this, right?)

  Correct (I'm just checking here)?  Are there other tasks?

  I can definitely do #3 if it is just duplicating the logic that I added
for border-color.  I'm not sure I know the mechanics of #1 exactly - running
spec-dump and adding/merging stuff.  I looked at expr/fo-expr-eval.c; I
might be able to help with #2, but that would be more challenging,
especially the lexing/parsing code, I'd think.  #4 looks trivial.

  I guess just let me know what you'd like me to work on.

  On another note, how do I get the cvs xmlroff/ sources into a
configure-able/make-able state?  I just did "autoconf configure.in" and it
yelled at me for some undefined macros.  I can give you details if this is
news.  I'm not familiar with the autotools etc.

  Thanks,

   Julian
