Hi Keiron,
I know of this changes ... BTW the stuff that I'd like to see
maintained into the new area tree is a reference to the FO that generate the
area (generatedBy methond) and the same for the page-sequences and pages.
I guess that at the moment will be better for FOA to distribute a
"customized" version of FOP and then, when the new area tree is ready I will
write the new XMLPrintRenderer.
