I believe Glenn Adams is planning to work on a release of FOP in the 
near term. Exactly when I don't know. First of all we need to discuss it 
on fop-dev. Typically a release candidate would be buolt first and the 
community allowed to test it. During which time we can iron out any 
instabilities before building the final release.
