[Xerte-dev] Re: 25th - 26th April (was RE: Translation support of Wizard)

[Kemp Johnathan]

Hello Julian,

Just wanted to wish you well with the Xenith project meetings later this
week. Thanks for the invite, unfortunately I have other commitments.

I shall follow the developments with interest, particularly those relating
to any facilities for the generation of new page types.

Kind regards

Johnathan
