Unleash the flying monkeys!

I'll see about getting a Rawhide instance going in the next
few weeks
for testing.  Hereby letting all others interested in
quality PDF
production from DocBook, here's a way to lend a hand - test
the new FOP
build.

I would appreciate any instructions on how to do this.

Hot diggity dog!

I finally got around to trying this out today, and I have to
say this is
a beautiful thing!  Everything just worked!  Wonderful!

To give you some background, I've spent the past several
weeks working
on Docbook/FOP stuff for another project, and been fighting
the whole
Java stack the entire time.  Karsten and Thomas (and anyone
else who
worked on this), please contact me offline and I'll find a
way to buy
you a pizza.  (Now if I could just get this other project
finished, so
that I can work on Fedora docs...)
