Re: [ANNOUNCEMENT] FOP 0.20.4 Release Candidate available
Depends on how long it still takes to get the new one online. Probably
another 2 or 3 weeks, I guess. Right, Joerg?
By the way, I have trouble accessing your FAQ. The browser gets reply
but no data. Any others have similar problems?

So, it looks like we're still having problems with our new ISP. Switched
last week. Thanks for replying.

Hardly. All the problems are already in 0.20.3, some
date back to at least 0.17.

Ouch. Sounds like a lot of reasons to stick to 2.03 for production stuff,
regardless of whether 2.04rc goes to 2.04 or not.

I'm somewhat indifferent. It seems getting the doc
ready is not a matter of a few days.
OTOH, I walked through LineArea.java and other related
files today and found tons of problems and the causes
of half of the "simple" bug in bugzilla. It appears
everybody was busy to hack in new features the code
consolidation was not even considered. There is half
a zillion of unused functions and data, as well as a lot
of duplicated code. These are some jumbo patches to the
core functionality which should be tested well before
going into a release.
So let's say make a release ASAP, and prepare for another
maintenance release in end of july...mid august.
Is this ok?

Hi Jörg,
As soon as the release is done then commit what you have so far and we
can work this out.
Do you know how cocoon works? It can be confusing to start with.

Not quite. The documents are ready but getting the
style sheets to produce HTML still eludes me. There
appears to be a lot going on behind the stages in
forrest. See for example
