You seem to be following XML library versioning issues the closest of all of us,
certainly as it pertains to FOP, so my gut feeling is that if you think it is OK
then it is.
If you can, maybe you could highlight these versioning requirements in one or
more appropriate documentation places. It would be nice to keep a history of why
we adopt specific versions of libraries. Much obliged (and I'm sure Fotis is,
too).
