+  </ul>
   <p>Caveats:</p>
   <ul>
     <li>
       You may experience different behaviour compared to version 0.20.5.
       Please consult the <a href="stable/upgrading.html">"Upgrading"</a> page for details.
+    </li>
+  </ul>
+  <p>Known Issues:</p>
+  <ul>
+    <li>
+      PCL, MIF and SVG output support have not been restored, yet.
+    </li>
+    <li>
+      Java2D/AWT support has been improved, but some problems remain,
+      for example with block-containers.
+    </li>
+    <li>
+      Auto table layout is not implemented, yet.
+    </li>
+    <li>
+      The collapsing border model on tables is not implemented, yet. Please 
+      use border-collapse="separate" for now.
+    </li>
+    <li>
+      Footnotes may overlap with text of the region-body in multi-column 
+      documents.
+    </li>
+    <li>
+      Space resolution does not work between footnote regions.
+    </li>
+    <li>
+      There's a problem involving nested block-containers and 
+      reference-orientation 180/-180 (<a href="http://issues.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=36391">Bugzilla #36391</a>)
+    </li>
+    <li>
+      block-containers with no height currently don't create a fence for
+      spaces as they should (they behave like a normal block).
+    </li>
+    <li>
+      Preserved linefeeds in fo:character are not handled correctly.
+    </li>
+    <li>
+      An empty block currently produces a fence for stacking constraints
+      which it shouldn't.
+    </li>
+    <li>
+      There are several small problems around white space handling.
+    </li>
+    <li>
+      Images currently don't shrink so they fit on a page when they are 
+      too big and shrinking is allowed to happen.
+    </li>
+    <li>
+      inline-container may not work as expected.
+    </li>
+    <li>
+      letter-spacing and word-spacing properties may not work as expected.
+    </li>
+    <li>
+      leaders with leader-pattern="use-content" may not work as expected.
+    </li>
+    <li>
+      keep-with-previous doesn't work inside tables and lists, yet.
+    </li>
+    <li>
+      If two consecutive pages don't have the same available width, the 
+      content currently isn't properly fit into the available space on
+      the new page.
+    </li>
+    <li>
+      background-images on page-number-citations are not placed correctly.
+    </li>
+    <li>
+      Not all FO elements can be referenced by their "id", most notably:
+      table-body, table-header, table-footer and table-row.
+    </li>
+    <li>
+      The backgrounds of table-body, table-header, table-footer and 
+      table-column are not painted, yet.
+    </li>
+    <li>
+      Border and padding conditionality are not supported on table-cells, yet.
+    </li>
+    <li>
+      Column balancing in multi-column documents may not work as expected
+      (<a href="http://issues.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=36356">Bugzilla #36356</a>)
+    </li>
+    <li>
+      Omitting fo:table-column or having fo:table-column without a column-width 
+      and attempting to create columns implicitly from the first
+      table row is not implemented, yet (<a href="http://issues.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=35656">Bugzilla #35656</a>).
+    </li>
+    <li>
+      Internal basic-links don't point to the exact location on a page, yet, as they
+      did in 0.20.5. Currently you land in the upper left corner of the page.
