[gui-talk] e-mailing myself a full magazine from newsline: What program to open it?

Sun Jun 7 05:27:44 UTC 2009

I believe you -- I forgot they moved the project from googlecode to
the daisy.org site.  For a long time it had its own site, and was
also supported by JSRPD in Japan for a while I believe.
