The FOP User Mailing List serves as a backup to the self-service documentation for cases where either the documentation is deficient or where users have unusual circumstances. FOP developers and users are happy to help answer questions that are <em>appropriate to the forum</em> (i.e. FOP-specific), and that are <em>submitted after appropriate preparation</em>. To ensure that your question is not <strong>abusive</strong> of this policy, please use the following checklist:</p> + <ul> + <li>Have you followed the <link href="gethelp.html">Getting Help</link> checklist? If not, please do so before submitting your question.</li> + <li>Is your question appropriate to the forum? If it is really an XSL-FO question, XSLT question, or PDF question, please see the other resources on this page that are intended to help you get those questions answered.</li> + <li>Have you read <link href="#mailing-lists-general">Mailing List General Information</link>? If not please do so before proceeding.</li> + <li>Have you stated the version of FOP you are using? Please do so.</li> + <li>Have you included any detailed error messages? Please do so.</li> + <li>Does a proper understanding of your question require inclusion of XSLT code, DocBook source, or other semantic XML? If so, the question is <em>almost certainly not appropriate to this list</em>. In general, the only input documents that are appropriate on this list are XSL-FO snippets. See <link href="running.html#running_xalan">Running Xalan</link> for instructions about capturing the XSL-FO document that is actually submitted to FOP. If you haven't examined the XSL-FO document yourself, then you are not yet prepared to formulate a FOP-specific question.</li> + <li>If you are providing one or more XSL-FO snippets: + <ul> + <li>Have you reduced them to the shortest possible complete, <strong>self-contained</strong> document that demonstrates the problem? Please do so.</li> + <li>Have you removed images that are not an integral part of the question? Please do so.</li> + <li>Have you filtered out confidential material? Please do so.</li> + </ul> + </li> + <li>If you are including a stack trace: + <ul> + <li>Is it helpful in finding the problem? If not, please do not submit it.</li> + <li>Have you included only those portions that are relevant to the question? If not, please do so.</li> + </ul> + </li> + <li>Are you attaching large PDF files or screen shots to your message? If so, please consider attaching a minimal, appropriate B&W GIF, JPG or PNG that conveys the necessary information instead.</li> + </ul> + </section> + </section> + <section id="w3c-xslfo"> + <title>XSL-FO Mailing List (at W3C)</title> + <p>Use this forum to ask general XSL-FO questions.</p> + <ul> + <li>To review the archive: <jump href="http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/www-xsl-fo/">W3C XSL-FO Archives</jump>.</li> + <li>Before posting questions to any list, see "<link href="#mailing-lists-general">General Information</link>".</li> + <li>Subscription administration information can be found at <jump href="http://www.w3.org/Mail/Request">W3C Mailing List Administrativia</jump>. +After reviewing the instructions there, send your subscribe or unsubscribe request to <link href="mailto:www-xsl-fo-request@w3.org">www-xsl-fo-request@w3.org</link>.</li> + </ul> + </section> + <section id="yahoogroups-xslfo"> + <title>XSL-FO Mailing List (at YahooGroups)</title> + <p>Use this forum to ask general XSL-FO questions.</p> + <ul> + <li>Before posting questions to any list, see "<link href="#mailing-lists-general">General Information</link>".</li> + <li>The home page for this groups is <jump href="http://groups.yahoo.com/group/XSL-FO">XSL-FO - discussion of XSL Formatting Objects</jump>.</li> + </ul> + </section> + <section id="xslt-mulberry"> + <title>XSLT List (Mulberry Tech)</title> + <ul> + <li>Before posting questions to any list, see "<link href="#mailing-lists-general">General Information</link>".</li> + <li>Information for using and subscribing can be found at <jump href="http://www.mulberrytech.com/xsl/xsl-list">XSL-List -- Open Forum on XSL</jump>.</li> + </ul> + </section> + </body> +</document> |
