Ross are you talking about "using" Forrest plugins?
IIUC, Ferdinand is talking about developing the code
in svn trunk. As far as i can see there can only be
one version.

David is right. Is it at all possible to have two separate versions of a plugin in svn? And how would that work?

Ferdinand i don't understand why we would want to maintain
two separate versions.

Good point. If the old plugin is still available for download and the new plugin is marked so that is works with 0.8 there is really no reason to still have the old code in svn.

So what I'd do is:

- publish the current state of the pdf-plugin if there are
  changes
  just checked: last change was April 10, 2007 thus before
  the 0.8-release thus no need to republish
- update the version number of the plugin, move the libs and
  stylesheets and test this with fop94-branch
- when working test the new plugin with forrest 0.8 and
  head
- when working publish the plugin and remove fop-code in
  from head.

wdyt?
