New Release Imminent

Hi, all

Steve Coffman is getting Mark Lillywhite's patch put in place. We'll also 
make sure that all code-formatting is OK after that committing happens...

I expect to work on the release at the start of the weekend, and have FOP 
0.20.0 up in CVS NLT than say Aug 5. Fotis, is that enough time for docs?

Regards,

0.20.0 seems to make the most sense. I agree, CVS doesn't compute, because 
_everything_ is CVS. I think I put in DEV because I wanted to highlight 
that, but then arguments were advanced against that one, too. So just the 
version number it shall be, unless there are any reasonable counter-arguments.

If possible, can we stick to some sort of naming rules for the releases?
The last four releases have been names 0.17.0, 0.18.0, 0.18.1-DEV and
0.19.0-CVS.

The 0.19.0-CVS release is extremly confusing for us, since we started
using 0.19.0-CVS (the snapshot) after some of the table bugs have been
fixed in CVS.  And by the time the 0.19.0-CVS (the release) came along,
we mixed up the two.  Ironically, we are still using a snapshot version
because the 0.19.0-CVS (the release) has the non-breaking table problem.
