There are 6 such objects:
fo:character
- fo:leader
+ fo:leader [at the moment only partially]
fo:table-and-caption
fo:table-header
fo:multi-case
fo:wrapper
-2.A second category of tasks will be to update existing objects.
- This typically entails renaming modifications. There are at least 3 of these:
+2. [Has been done]
- fo:page-sequence-master
- fo:single-page-master-reference
- fo:repeatable-page-master-reference
-
-3.A third category of tasks is to retire obsolescent objects. The primary issue
- here seems to be the migration of FOP from officially supporting
- DisplayGraphic and InlineGraphic FO's to officially supporting at least an
- ExternalGraphic FO, and ideally also the InstreamForeignObject FO, the latter
- aimed at SVG support.
+3. [Has been done]
4.A fourth, and not insignificant, category of tasks is to decide upon and
implement all reasonable properties required by the specification. This
5.A fifth category of tasks is the ongoing effort to promote maintainability,
write
more and better documentation, and to refine the build process.
- a) Don't use 'make' any longer and make sure that build.sh and build.bat work
- b) Add the property files to the source code (how is the vote on this?)
- c) update the examples to the new spec
- d) add examples so that all the FOs supported are used in some example
+ a) Add the property files to the source code (how is the vote on this?)
+ b) add examples so that all the FOs supported are used in some example
+
+6. Redo or work on the classes/properties which have been fixed only in a superficial way
+ to conform to the latest working draft
+ - "white-space-treatment" doesn't work at the moment
+ - leader is just a renamed display-rule and must be rewritten:
+ it is now (wd 3.2000) generating inline-areas and not block areas
+ and has a more complex function
+ - inline is just a renamed inline-sequence and must be worked on:
+ it is now (wd 3.2000) generating an inline-area itself

**** Bugs ****
- colour not continued onto subsequent pages if coloured block goes over page
- no SVG support in AWTCommandLine
- keep-next doesn't work and doubles the text lines which should be moved to the next page
-- pdf files created with Fop don't print correctly on postscript printers
- lists containing list do not keep their indentation correctly over a page boundary
with AWT Previewer:
- currently the layout process uses PDF fonts. This gives sometimes
trouble with java.awt.Font
- we need some progress messages even if the process itself is fast
-- GIF format is supported by the viewer, but disabled in FOP. BMP is
- not done, because there are no standard libraries.
- more comments/english comments
- first preview is painted twice (flashing screen)
- should "preview" be an option when calling FOP instead of having
