Hi

This is just my answer as developer that has poppler cvs access, maintainer is 
krh but he seems to be missing.

AFAIK we have no roadmap.

Yes it is

well, there are two separate things one expects to be able of doing when you 
have forms, first one is beign able to fill them, that should be a lot of 
work, but doable IMHO. The second one is saving the file with the forms 
filled to send it to other people, that IS MUCH MORE DIFFICULT as poppler 
does not have any infraescture for dumping again the contents of a pdf it has 
in memory to a file.

You get warnings? I don't recall getting any in kpdf (does not uses poppler 
directly but code is 99% similar)

This means your going to help with coding?
