To: Book People Mailing List <bookpeople(a)pobox.upenn.edu>
Those of us interested in OCR will want to keep an eye on
http://code.google.com/p/ocropus/.
From that Web page: ``We are planning on an
alpha-release of the
system in Q1. It's a technology preview that shows the
architecture
and is already quite useful...''
This is the follow-on to the Tesseract work that came out last year.
