Developing with Avalon
I have successfully gotten the Avalon documentation transformed into
PDF. There are a couple caviats though, that I don't have time to
resolve right now:
I have not generated the Table of Contents yet (a future excercise),
and I cannot import images into the document due to unpredictable base
addresses. All the important information is there, and it comes out
to a meager 52 pages (did I write all that?).
For anyone listening on the cocoon list, I would appreciate help in
telling FOP to find the external graphics. If anyone has clues that
help, let me know. Enclosed is what the PDF looks like (zipped up).

Thank you. It took alot longer than I thought for the PDF. The docs have
been on the site for a while though.

:) Then you missed the [RT] on pluggable component tracking--something
that is there when you need it, but does not impose overhead when it is
disabled.
I got tired of being lazy and waiting for someone else to do it. Cocooners,
you have my permission to take advantage of my hard work. The stylesheet is
for Docbook format documents though ;).

Wow, I'm impressed! Both for the docs and for the format. Very
professional and very useful. Great work!!!
Ah, I still have to subscribe to the Avalon mail list... I'll do that
right away.

It will be made available on the Jakarta web site within a day or two. I have
some things I need to take care of with Axis first, and I will post a link later.
It will be the same document.

Berin:
I would really like to include your PDF under OSM's technical resources page
http://www.osm.net/technical/index.html. Is there a URL I could point to or
alternatively, can I maintain a copy of the document locally.
Cheers, Steve.
