Saw about this a few days ago ...

GNU PDF - a High-priority project of the FSF

From the main page:

The goal of the GNU PDF project is to develop and provide a free, high-quality, complete and portable set of libraries and programs to manage the PDF file format, and associated technologies.

Adobe's page about PDF

Excerpt from above page:

"Invented by Adobe Systems and perfected over 15 years, Adobe Portable Document Format (PDF) lets you capture and view robust information—from any application, on any computer system—and share it with anyone around the world. Individuals, businesses, and government agencies everywhere trust and rely on Adobe® PDF to communicate their ideas and vision."

Exciting days ahead, and I'm gonna be a part of the action.

I'll be writing a few more posts about these developments in the coming days, so stay tuned if they interest you.
