As discussed recently, I will prepare a release of FOP, to be named 0.93. Two issues need to be addressed:
1. I will apply two patches by Richard Wheeldon, to improve memory usage: Bug http://issues.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=41009, with patch http://issues.apache.org/bugzilla/attachment.cgi?id=19177 en bug http://issues.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=41044, with patch http://issues.apache.org/bugzilla/attachment.cgi?id=19155. I will have to study the first patch, as I have not looked at it, and the bugzilla page contains nobody's comments. I will only apply the patch if it seems certain that it breaks nothing. I have studied and commented the second patch, as has Andreas, and I believe it can be safely applied before the release. Applying these patches allows us to present a production version whose memory usage has been trimmed somewhat. 2. With this release it is possible to use the original font metrics, without generating a special metrics file for FOP. See http://mail-archives.apache.org/mod_mbox/xmlgraphics-fop-dev/200611.mbox/[EMAIL PROTECTED] There is no entry for this in the changes file, and there is no documentation on the website. It is important enough to clarify with the release. I will try to add some text to the changes file and perhaps something to the documentation. As I am not familiar with this material, if someone else can do a better job, please do. After these changes I will create a branch. Manuel, can you hold your changes until the branch has been created? Please, let me know if you have different ideas. Regards, Simon -- Simon Pepping home page: http://www.leverkruid.eu
