I will take care of answering Paul.
Thanks.
Maybe we should use this opportunity to also state that the pdf-reading component has to be free and that this condition rules out skim. What do you think?
I think it is good. Also add Bernhard in CC:
Maybe an extra section on the About page:
"Conditions for PDF-Readers"
To be listed on this page a PDF reading software must fulfil certain conditions. First and foremost it has to be Free Software[link to our definition]. This includes -- but is not limited to -- the software component responsible for rendering the PDF (e.g. Skim[link] does not qualify, because it uses a proprietary library for PDF rendering).
Currently we only cover regular desktop PDF-Readers. Software for editing, converting or creating PDFs is not listed; Software for mobile platforms is not listed and web-applications ("Software as a Service") are not either.
If you come across software that fulfils these conditions and is not listed, please let us know!
What do you think? Maybe have translators look over it? [its late right now ;) ]
I like it. Bernhard, do you agree this is a good definition of our criteria?
Maybe "Criteria for PDF-Readers" is a nicer heading then "Conditions for PDF-Readers".
