1. Well yes. :)

2. Good point. Needs some community flavour also to help with rating programs and putting everything in context.

That's a *very* good point Semprini. I guess we treated it as more than just vapourware because of the work they've been doing with other open organisations, and the fact that the Riversimple prototype product actually exists. Which shows it's more than just a pipe-dream?

Hmm...yeah TinyPDF looks to be broken (i.e. commercialised).

Take a look at doPDF (http://www.dopdf.com/) . It's small, free and does what TinyPDF used to do. :)
