Apologies, but bugs in FOP 0.20.5 will no longer be fixed. 
Please try FOP 0.93 or the Trunk, and see if the problem persists there.

Hi Chris,

I fully agree with you. Moreover I think the website refactoring should
be done when releasing FOP 0.94, and that's where I call for help. We
would remove the 0.20.5 tab and replace it with a "upgrading from
earlier versions" section.
Once 0.94 is out we would remove the 0.20.5 entry from Bugzilla.
As to the conformance page, I think we could remove the 0.20.5 column as
well. When I have a look at it it gives me the feeling that 0.93 isn't
that life-changing compared to 0.20.5, whereas I think it is...

Vincent

Hi Andreas,

I notice you closing a few 0.20.5 bugs and completely agree that we 
shouldn't be spending time looking at these issues any more. The trouble 
is people keep using 0.20.5 and raising bugs against it because our 
website gives the impressive 0.20.5 is still a supported product, an 
alternative to 0.93 rather than 0.93 being a replacement for 0.20.5. The 
is confirmed by the fact the website has separate tabs for 0.20.5 and 0.93.

If we are serious about no longer supporting 0.20.5, which I think we 
should be after nearly 2 years of 0.9x releases then I think we should 
seriously consider refactoring the website slightly to get the point 
across. Indeed to save us the bother of continually closing bugs against 
0.20.5 with WONTFIX, we could remove all 0.20.x entries from the 
bugzilla version list ;)

In terms of refactoring the website I think the tab titled 0.20.5 should 
contain the page how to upgrade from previous versions, instead of 
documentation on how to configure 0.20.5 etc. Then it is totally clear 
that 0.20.5 is no longer a supported product and if folk choose to 
continue to use it then they must support it themselves instead of 
bombarding us with problems with relating to it.

I am not so sure if 0.20.5 should be removed from the compliance page 
yet but we should also consider removing the binaries from the download 
area. That will discourage any new users starting to use it instead of 
the active 0.9x release, which they may well do in error at the moment 
because of the website showing 0.20.5 and 0.93 side by side.

WDYT?

Chris
