| <p> |
| This is the development status of Apache FOP. Development on |
| the maintenance branch where FOP 0.20.5 came from has been |
| halted. The code base has been largely redesigned. The new |
| code base has reached release 0.95. |
| </p> |
| </section> |
| <section> |
| <title>Development Status</title> |
| <p>The FOP code base has been largely rewritten, to address |
| design issues for layout and performance. The new design makes |
| it better possible to be conformant to the spec and be able to |
| handle large documents.</p> |
| <p>The redesign of the code base has largely been completed. The |
| new code reached production quality with release 0.93. In the |
| course of 2008 or 2009 we hope to release version 1.0.</p> |
| <p> |
| If you're looking for a long-term road-map we have to disappoint you. This is Open |
| Source and we're mostly volunteers working in their free time. What we have |
| is an idea where we want to go. How fast we get there depends on the |
| available time, on how well our ideas work out while developing and on you! |
| There's a <a href="http://wiki.apache.org/xmlgraphics-fop/RoadMap">document in the Wiki</a> |
| where you can get a glimpse of what points we're currently focusing on. |

| Not all the components of FOP currently have the same quality. The following |

| <title>Maintenance Status</title> |
| <p> |
| The latest release of the maintenance branch is FOP 0.20.5, released on July 18th, 2003. |
| The maintenance branch has been frozen in 2004 so the team can concentrate on the new code |
| base. |
