TeX Development Fund:

Once again, TUG invites applications for TeX Development Fund grants for
the year 2004. The TeX Development Fund was created by TUG to aid growth
of TeX-related technical projects; we encourage individuals and groups
involved with TeX-related development work, either new or ongoing
projects, to apply.  For more information, past grants, and the online
application form, please see http://www.tug.org/tc/devfund/.

We'd like to again thank the TeX community for the positive response and
generous donations we've received for the development fund, and indeed
for TUG in general.


As always, please don't hesitate to contact us for any reason.

Happy TeXing,
Karl Berry (president),
on behalf of the TUG board
