--- Comment #4 from Hannes H <bugzilla at soulrebel.in-berlin.de> ---
Please do ignore the personal comments in the ticket, but don't ignore the
original intent.

I have worked for the pdfreaders.org campaign for FSFE and I know that PDF is a
beast to implement. I think it's great that we have another Free Software
implementation now and I have to admit that it does render quite a few PDFs,
especially those with forms, better than poppler-based Okular. Of course before
changing any defaults, it would simply be great to have an alternative and see
how it compares outside of the browser.

That having been said, I cannot contribute code right now, but I just wanted to
underline that there is continued interest in this matter and I hope you don't
just disregard the idea because PDFium is "NIH" or from Google.

Thanks and keep up the good work!
