Hi Adam,

<comment>
Then why do you only write tools that run on non-free platforms?  I've
seen several announcements of your stuff, and it looks interesting,
but I can't run it.

you spoke about free platform <question>Is it Linux?</question>. if yes,
then, if you call it free, this is probably because you downloaded it and
compiled it (free) and did not bought the already compiled one (not free).
So, if both cases are true, in three to four months from now, we'll need
some testers that can compile mozilla code (free) on Linux with a dsssl and
XSL MIME filter. Can we count on you as a vonlonteer to do this?

You'll have to:
a) compile Mozilla on Linux,
b) compile the modified dsssl engine and the xsl engine also
c) test the behavior and report bugs to bugszilla.

We would be glad to get some help from people able to recompile the Linux OS
(free) because actually a lot of them have Linux pre-packaged (not free). So
for someone able to recompile Linux, to recompile Mozilla and its components
is a piece of cake.
