FOP 0.12.0 released

I've released FOP 0.12.0.

The CVS revisions are tagged and http://xml.apache.org/dist/ now contains
both source and binary distributions.

Now, back to work...

I can't open the jar file using jar on NT. A problem with one file name,
maybe?

The jar file format is based on the zip format, so you have to be able to open jar files 
with a normal zip archiver otherwise there is a problem with the jar file. In this respect 
the program jar is just another archiver - and it also doesn't open the distribution files.

Well, you shouldn't need to open the binary distribution. The source can be
opened with jar which comes with the JDK which you would need to have to
compile anyway.

Winzip 6.3 and another archiver can't open these files. Just a windows problem?
