fop.xconf

["Peter B. West" <pb...@powerup.com.au>]

Fops,

What's the intention for fop.xconf?  Is it to be processed by the user 
agent?  What about user configuration?  Have these things been decided yet?

It's been there for ages with the intent to provide for
configurable, easily changed defaults. Unfortunately
1. There's not much more than PDF filters (in the maintenance
  branch), and if all filters are deleted, the code uses a
  flate filter anyway (which means you have to provide a
  nop filter in order to have a look at the uncompressed
  PDF code).
2. The fop.xconf, userconfig and command line options
  are not merged, although they should.

I haven't looked at it--but this was before my time on
the project, fop.xconf hasn't been altered since
December 2002.  It appears to be related to
Avalonization of FOP.  For the benefit of other
relative newcomers, it is located here:

http://cvs.apache.org/viewcvs.cgi/xml-fop/conf/fop.xconf

And the project's earlier discussion on it is here:
