Raymond Rodgers has updated the Themis homepage with some good news. The first rendering which consisted of rendering a table was successful. Here's what he said:
Although I can't say that Themis will render complete pages or is even really usable yet, I can state that thanks to Olivier Milla, it has at least begun the first steps towards rendering web content. The first render tests weren't anything dramatic, merely rendering a table, but it's a sign that this project is indeed heading in the right direction!
He takes the opportunity (and rightly so) to welcome anyone who wants to help with the development. You can never have too much (active) coders, and like he says, coding into the Renderer "doesn't need any skill except knowing BeOS C++".

I'd like to thank Olivier himself for the heads up on this one.
