I would like to call for a merge of the AFP branch [1] back into

If the issue as discussed in the parallel thread is ironed out, I see
no reason why not.
+1 in that case.
Adrian, just a small FWIW: Chris has drawn the right conclusion, I
think. No need to take any of the questions/remarks personal (even
though I understand this is difficult after the time you've spent on
perfecting the code in that branch).
If you ever have doubts about the respect that other fop-devs have
for your work, I think everyone would agree that your font-detection
package and the FontCache are amongst the major enhancements to have
been added in the past couple of releases together. No need to worry
there. If I judge correctly, the work in the AFP branch could very
well go the same route.
OTOH, I feel compelled to mention that attempting to kill a raised,
perfectly legitimate issue in an unreasonable way (by taking it to be
a personal offense), may alienate some people...
From a diplomatic viewpoint, not a very sound move to make right
before you decide to launch a vote. :/
As the vote indicates, no offense or disrespect intended.
Thanks a lot for your continued efforts, making FOP an even better
product!
Cheers
Andreas
