        Version 0.20.5 represents Apache FOP's current stable release. Even though it's over two years old
        this release will stay the first choice for those who want a stable product for use in production
        environments, at least for another few months until the code from out redesign effort has stabilized
        enough. This shouldn't keep you off trying out the <a href="../trunk/index.html">redesigned code</a>, 
        though.
      </p>
      <p>
        Please notice that, although we still provide support for 0.20.5, we won't fix any bugs or add any 
        new features to this branch of development anymore.
        Instead, please help us with <a href="../trunk/index.html">FOP Trunk</a> by trying it out and 
        sending us your feedback. Of course, we especially appreciate any contributions in the form of 
        documentation updates and code patches.

        This is the development status of Apache FOP. A branch has been created for
        maintenance releases while the development is done to address various
        performance and design issues. Development on the maintenance branch has
        been halted as the focus was transferred entirely to the redesign effort.

        Development for FOP Trunk (aka Redesign) is addressing the design issues for layout and
        performance. The new design is focusing on making it possible to be conformant
        to the spec and be able to handle large documents.

        The first preview release will have the following: similar functionality
        to previous FOP releases (although not in every point), some new features 
        (like keeps on all implemented FOs), a rough API and a suitable design for
        developers to work on more functionality.
      </p>
      <p>
        The timing of these events depends on progress made so it is not possible
        to predict any dates. However, we think that at the current rate of progress
        we can start releasing again in the second half of 2005.
        We originally targeted for October 2005 to publish the first preview release
        but it takes a little longer than expected to prepare everything for the
        release. The first (unstable) preview release can be expected in mid-November
        2005.

        At the moment we're concentrating mainly on the layout engine which is the
        central and trickiest part of the whole package. The infrastructure around
        it is in relatively good shape already although there are still areas for
        newbies to jump in and help.
        We now have a good overall design and have been able to add several new features
        besides recreating most of the features from 0.20.5. We are doing ongoing work
        to make it easier for newbies to jump in and help. Furthermore, an extensive
        test suite helps us maintain and improve the quality of the package.

        Of course, we also welcome any help on the layout managers. So if you 
        want to push your brain to the limit, come and join us!
