[VOTE] Merge the ChangingIPDHack Branch Back to Trunk
Hi All,
Having had no feedback from the users list, I’m happy to announce that
the ChangingIPDHack branch is now totally bug-free :-)
Following the discussion on general@ [1], the best way to handle this
probably is to merge the changes back into the Trunk, even if they are
hacky. Maintaining a separate branch may turn out to be more
time-consuming than reverting the merge once work on a new layout engine
starts.
So I’d like to launch a vote for merging the following branch:
https://svn.eu.apache.org/repos/asf/xmlgraphics/fop/branches/Temp_ChangingIPDHack
into Trunk.
+1 from me.

Thanks,
Vincent

Agreed with the argumentation. +1 from me. The changes seem well backed
by tests and they appear to break no existing tests. This is useful
functionality for some people. Better have as few parallel branches as
possible. Reminds me to do something about the Tagged PDF branch when I
have a chance.

Sorry Vincent but I have no time to test your work at the moment. Hacks
are rarely satisifying, but it seems that you have made the best of a
constraining situation, +1 from me.
Adrian.

I've run a few real life test documents against the branch and found no
problems. So +1 from me.

Like Adrian, I haven't been able to allocate the time to run tests of
my own, but IMO, the changes have been up for review long enough now.
So +1 from my end.
