The NTS Group
The NTS group was created under the ægis of
DANTE e.V
at Hamburg in
1992. Its brief was "to perpetuate and develop the spirit and philosophy of
TeX, whilst respecting Knuth's wish that TeX should remain frozen".
The group is currently composed of the following members:
The group's primary current activity is the further development of
e-TeX, and the group
are working closely with the LaTeX-3 team to ensure that functionality
needed by the latter is incorporated into e-TeX wherever possible.
NTS itself
is being implemented in Sun's JAVA by
Karel
Skoupy
under the direction of
Prof. Jiri Zlatuska. This
implementation is being funded by
DANTE e.V,
who have contributed DM 30 000 to cover the expenses of the first year's work.
The group gratefully acknowledges the contribution made by
previous members including, but not restricted to,
Rainer Schöpf and Joachim Schrod.
The group also gratefully acknowledges the support (both
financial and otherwise) given by the members of
DANTE e.V.
to the work of the project.
