RTFSerializer: new license for jfor, distribute with Cocoon?

Hello committers,

We changed the license on jfor (the XSL-FO to RTF converter that is used by 
the RTFSerializer) from MPL to an ASF-compatible one, similar to the license 
used by the chaperon project (src/scratchpad/lib/LICENSE.chaperon).

I think this should allow jfor to be distributed with Cocoon now - if that's 
the case, should I make a patch entry in bugzilla so that someone can make 
the required changes?

The jfor jar can be downloaded at 
http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=29441, and the license 
can be seen at http://www.jfor.org/jfor-license.html or in the source code.

Including jfor.jar with Cocoon (134 kB only) would certainly be a Good Thing 
for users - they would not need to recompile Cocoon anymore before being able 
to generate RTF.

Once (if) that's done, it would be good to activate an RTF sample similar to 
hello.pdf - I can submit the required patches if needed.

ok, I've been looking at where the hello.pdf sample comes from and it seems like it is defined in two places, both in 
src/webapp/samples/hello-world and src/webapp/samples (see below).

Which is the right place to define an hello.rtf sample? Do I need to add it 
in both places?

Hi Bertrand,

great news!

I think, it's a good idea to add jfor to the distribution.
If you could make a patch including a samples and docs
would be very great! We can then simply apply it.

Thanks for your offer!

Carsten

How's the integration with FOP going?

[PATCH] in bugzilla is the best way.
