New list subscriber - Question about gdi:widenpath

[Tho]

Hi Laurent,
if you can`t implement the functionality yourself, then you might want 
to file a Bug in Bugzilla stating that your application depends on 
WidenPath() and add a simple Testcase for it.
This will (at least)  increase the chance, that the functionality gets 
added someday :)
Maybe it would be useful too, if you would add an entry in our AppDB 
that decribes your App in more detail.
