Bertrand? Bertrand? Are you still there?
Bertrand, I just noticed that you are heading to Australia, including Brisbane. Please get in touch when you are here. 0402 991 747 is my mobile number. If possible, let me know when you are arriving. Peter -- Peter B. West http://www.powerup.com.au/~pbwest/resume.html
FOP web site: dev/svg.html question
On the DEV = SVG page[1], are there supposed to be links to the PNG versions of the graphics listed? On a related note (which I think I'll be asking on Forrest list), I'm getting Forrest build errors in this general vicinity. The errors indicate problems with missing XML files (which don't exist). However, the PDFs are actually *supposed* to be generated from SVG=PDF instead of XML=PDF.

Documentation finished
Hi, I finished my documentation of the FOP architecture and code. Well, more or less; this is version 0.9. Maybe I'll add a short introduction or some such. See http://www.leverkruid.nl/FOP/index.html. How can this be contributed to the FOP website? The documentation consists of a number of Docbook 4.2 XML files. Could this be part of the wiki? Or could it be in CVS? Regards, Simon -- Simon Pepping home page: http://www.leverkruid.nl

Maybe I'll add a short introduction or some such. See http://www.leverkruid.nl/FOP/index.html. Looks pretty good. As you indicated, there are a few areas to be improved (e.g., 'TO BE IMPROVED and 'no data' sections), and some issues with formatting (I think they're related to the text-align='justify' setting--perhaps the document would read better with default (i.e., 'left') justification?), but by and large this looks like it will be a valuable addition to the FOP arsenal! One other addition I'd like to see is that the fo:region-before include the Chapter '#' in addition to the Title. How can this be contributed to the FOP website? The documentation consists of a number of Docbook 4.2 XML files. Could this be part of the wiki? Or could it be in CVS? I would think this owuld be of interest to some of the more advanced fop-users (particularly those interested in customizing via Java and/or embedding). As such, perhaps there might be a place for its inclusion in a Docs tab or something? Regards, Simon -- Simon Pepping home page: http://www.leverkruid.nl Web Maestro Clay
FOP site update
FYI, I've also included the 'new' FOP logo on my personal space[1] (forgive the choppy/halo'd edges--an artifact of a 'transparent' white background on the GIF with a blue background on the page... It will be fixed!). BTW, I wouldn't mind changing the 'skin' for the web site to something more appealing ([2] comes to mind...). Other examples can be found here[3]. Comments are welcome!

Re: Documentation finished
Great, this makes for an excellent system design document that we can refine over time. I'm also happy you have it done in Docbook. We're doing it right the first time that way. I'd like to see it incorporated, in Docbook format, on our site. Tapestry has already managed Forrest and Docbook together (http://jakarta.apache.org/tapestry/doc.html). Before doing so, it would probably be good if you could look at our System design pages (http://xml.apache.org/fop/design/index.html), if you haven't already, and add to your document anything from them that is still relevant and useful but missing from your document. That way, when we add your document to our website, we can rid of the system design pages. (Most of them are obsolete with the changing architecture anyway.) That way, we will just have one official Docbook-based document to maintain. Thanks, Glen --- Simon Pepping [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Hi, I finished my documentation of the FOP architecture and code.

Re: FOP site update
While you're at it, along with the skin change, you may wish to switch our logo to the one at the top of http://mirrors.xtria.com/apache/xml/fop/.

Glen Way ahead of you[1]! (I'm using the version re-created by Victor--and 'improved' by me a little. I/we never got a vector-based version of that one, even though I like the 'mirrors' version you linked to better. We need a vector-based version so we can have resolution-independence). Great minds think alike! [1] http://homepage.mac.com/webmaestro/xml-fop/ (as I mentioned in another e-mail, the jaggies on this image will go away when we move to a white background)...

Hey it's not that bad ... at least we are not using stylebook anymore ;-) Christian
