Author: jeremias
Date: Thu Jul 31 00:44:51 2008
New Revision: 681290

URL: http://svn.apache.org/viewvc?rev=681290&view=rev
Log:
Website updates for the 0.95 release.
The projectInfo plug-in of Forrest is not ideal for doing a bugfix release. It's not possible to combine the changes for two releases.

+          <p>
+            Besides the important changes listed below, the most important areas with
+            improvements in this release are:
+          </p>
+          <ul>
+            <li>
+              Many bugfixes in tables, plus some new features (full support for keeps and
+              breaks, border conditionality, background on columns and header/footer/body)
+            </li>
+            <li>
+              Improvements and bugfixes for font handling and font
+              auto-detection/-registration.
+            </li>
+            <li>
+              Performance improvements and memory optimizations for the property handling
+              in the FO tree.
+            </li>
+          </ul>
+          <p>
+            Please note that with this release, we've dropped support for Java 1.3.
+            FOP will, from now on, <strong>require at least Java 1.4</strong>.
+          </p>
+          <p>
+            There have been a few changes in tables that make FOP both more strict and more
+            compliant to the Recommendation:
+            <ul>
+              <li>XSL-FO 1.1 explicitly states that a row-spanning fo:table-cell element is not
+                allowed to span further than its enclosing fo:table-header/footer/body element
+                (see bottom of <link href="http://www.w3.org/TR/xsl11/#fo_table">section
+                  6.7.3</link>). From now on FOP will give a validation error if a document
+                contains such an erroneous cell.
+              </li>
+              <li>
+                <p>If an fo:table element contains explicit fo:table-column children, then those
+                  elements set the total number of columns in the table. This means that a
+                  validation error will now occur if a row contains more cells than available
+                  columns. This change allows to improve performance, since the rendering of the
+                  table may start as soon as the table-column elements have been parsed.</p>
+                <p>If more flexibility is needed, then the fo:table-column elements may be just
+                  omitted. The final number of columns will then be set by the row that has the
+                  most cells.</p>
+              </li>
+            </ul>
+          </p>
+          <p>
+            The image libraries Jimi and JAI are no longer needed (and used) for image loading.
+            Instead we rely completely on the Image I/O API that has been introduced with
+            Java 1.4. If you still need support for bitmap image formats that do not work
+            out-of-the-box, we recommend adding
+            <link href="http://jai-imageio.dev.java.net/">JAI Image I/O Tools</link>
+            (an Image I/O compatible image codec package) to the classpath. JAI is still required
+            for building the FOP distribution but it is optional for normal builds and at run-time.
+          </p>
