Documentation fixes

Currently the site documentation (see URL) is missing information for several
latest updates.

The proposed changes include:

 * Reflect Java 1.3 support removed
   * (revision 666001 ( https://svn.apache.org/viewcvs.cgi?view=rev&rev=666001 ))
 * Missing documentation for window.postURL
   * (already implemented for a while, just not documented [1])
 * Missing documentation for window.location
   * (recently implemented [2], revisions 712954, 712955)
 * Mention Window Object [3] standard
   * (within the scripting support, "status.xml")
 * Add JRE as an alternative requirement and add note for JDK regarding
compilation
   * (only JDK was listed as requirement in "faq.xml")
   * (clearing JDK need for compilation, although intuitive for advanced users,
can be useful for starters)
 * References to Batik version 1.6 changed to 1.7
   * (although only used for example purposes, 1.7 is around for a while)

Reverted this: using 1.6 for examples is fine.

Added a note to the location interface stating it's available since version
1.8. ;-)

That issue was (already) fixed in a separate commit. :-)

It brings up a good point.  What version of Batik the site documentation
reflect?  In the Status page at least, I have just had it describe whatever the
current SVN trunk can do.  FOP has separate pages for trunk vs releases.

Duplicating all of the documentation for trunk vs release doesn't seem like a
nice way to present it, IMO.  There aren't that many changes in trunk vs the
1.7 release anyway, so perhaps the documentation can reflect trunk
functionality, but with notes stating if certain aspects are since the release?

If you could create a separate patch and attach it to that bug, that would be
better I think.

I'm thinking if it would be a good idea to add a FAQ item regarding the out of
memory issues that haunt the mailing list [1] and the bug tracker itself (bug
44164 [2] and , for example). This was also already explicitly asked for in the
mailing list [3].

If it sounds good, I'll be glad to update the current patch. :-)

 Helder Magalhães

I believe there might be interest in breaking this down, in order to allow a
commit whenever possible and a later commit (potentially creating a separate
bug report) for dealing with things which only make sense after the next
release (such as java 1.3 drop and the new window.location interfaces). Does
this make sense?

Apart from this, I recently stumbled at bug 43950, which could also be
addressed within this patch. Should it (by creating a bug dependency), or was
it better to create two separate patches?

I was generally thinking that the documentation was meant to reflected the last
release, but now that you pointed out the status page, I remember  so it seems
that this is unclear (you have my memory refreshed )... :-|

My 2 cents go for having the documentation always reflect the trunk status. One
could use something like the @since javadoc keyword for stating newly
introduced features, but I'm not sure if this can become confusing for users.

I also like the idea of only stating the relevant differences of trunk vs. last
release, but this means that changes need to be tracked down whenever a new
version is released...

I'm comfortable with any of these, please post your opinion(s) and I'll try to
review the patch whenever possible.

OK, I'll take a look at that whenever possible. ;-)
