Yes, you can only tell the logger to output more (DEBUG level with -d, INFO level without). All output is sent to standard out. Setting a logger (when calling FOP from Java) would enable you to have a much finer control over logging. You could have the logger send all messages to a remote log service for example. But you need some Java knowledge. > FWIW, I've tried 0.20.5rc and have found the output almost identical with > the current version.

No. Next version will most probably be a FOP 1.0DR (Developer's release, alpha quality). We're currently redesigning FOP as you might have noticed on the website. But it'll be some time (months) until then. By the way, we're always looking for helping hands!
