Hi committers, as you probably noticed, i started to rummage around in Bugzilla, searching for bugs still in existence and learning more about current and persistent problems.
Apart from the keep-* problem there are the following issues: - Other unimplemented or incompletely implemented elements and attributes. In particular: o fo:table-and-caption because DocBook uses this o fo:inline-container o common properties of fo:inline o whitespace handling attributes o a few shorthands - Height/BPD of block elements other than table. - Padding for fo:block (and perhaps other block elements) - Margins for tables, if that's a bug (see recent posts) - Better error reporting, in particular: o Report structure violations properly (for example don't drop fo:table-rows which are not children of fo:table-(body|header|footer) silently) o Notify about attributes which shouldn't be there or are not implemented. Currently, this is horribly inconsistently handled. o A few more sensible messages for attributes that are missing. I think, if a master-reference is missing, claiming it has no proper value is misleading. - Link hotspots. I think i have some unique bug reports to contribute in addition to the respectable set already in place :-) - Text loss near fo:inline and -horror!- character references! - Image scaling. Not yet in Bugzilla, i think: - Problems with properties of hypenated words (many are only applied to the last part). - conditional-page-master last - Clipping (overflow="hide" or something) Probably further down the ToDo list: - Better handling of forward ref page-number-citations (reformat line or something). Hopefully solvable locally. - Sensible algorithm to handle leader-length.maximum="100%", perhaps combined with point above. Should be localised to a line, therefore only moderatly hard. This is definitely a "must have". - PDF extensions, like encrypting. Perhaps integration with some other project. I think i'll leave Bugzilla alone until the next bug summary next weekend. Questions: Will there be another maintenance release before something comes out of the redesign? If so, when? Roadmap? If so, which should be the problems solved? Pick from above or add whatever you think should be added. Further question: Is the duplicate id bug fixed in all its incarnations? Oops: The FAQ goes along slowly, as usual. Converted to the FAQ-with-sections DTD referenced recently on the forrest-dev list.
