Hi,

* What is it ?
==============

Evince is a document viewer for multiple document formats like pdf,
postscript,
and many others. The goal of evince is to replace the multiple document viewers
that exist on the GNOME Desktop, like ggv, gpdf, and xpdf with a 
single simple application.

        * Rewrite most of the backend code to use threads and make
          the interface more responsive
