New list subscriber - Question about gdi:widenpath

[Laurent Vromman]

Hi,

I took a look this morning to gdi32 source code. I think i'll be able to 
make a priliminary working version, partially implemented.

I have already created a account to add the application in AppDB, I will 
do it as soon as possible.

Laurent
