Hi Clay and Pascal, Sorry for my late reply with this.
Pascal your idea makes a lot of sense as that will keep all versioned docs with their associated FOP version. I haven't had much of a chance to look at this over the last couple of days but am planning on spending some time in the coming days. Clay, both of what you mention sound intriguing so I'll take a look at those. I think updating it manually will be a last resort as even just writing an ant script would be preferable! If it does come to a script, the idea of copying the trunk folder and doing a find / replace on say "trunk" and replacing with "2.0" would be an option (with some caveats), but I'll investigate the other methods first. I'll keep you posted.
