easier for users/deployers.  If the 1.6 build (and ideally the binaries)
had a "batik-all.jar", which simply provided a single-jar deployment
option, it would be quite nice.  Just a thought...

There is already an 'all-jar' target that builds one large jar file. It is true that we don't include this in the binary release. This is sort of intentional as a toolkit there are several large pieces that are independent of each other, so it really isn't a great idea to just grab everything unless you are really using most of it (although it is admittedly convenient).

Subject: [VOTE] Release of Batik 1.6


Hi PMC,

    I am requesting a vote on releasing Batik 1.6.

    I have created a tag "batik-1_6" that indicates the code
under consideration.  All issues raised on batik-dev (basically
just comments on problems with javadocs) have been addressed.

    Sorry, I don't seem to be able to track down the thread on
mail-archives.eu.apache.org.

    I consider there to be one potentially known bug with regards
to setting documents on the Canvas, I believe the bug has been in
Batik since it's last release 1.5.1 and had, to date, not been
noticed.  I considered it more risky to try and fix at this point
than to leave the code as is:

        http://issues.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=34234

    The only other issue I can think of is that the current LICENSE
files for pdf-transcoder.jar and xerces_2_5_0.jar are the old 1.1
Apache License.  I will update the pdf-transcoder license to the
2.0, I am unsure if I can do that for xerces since I think the
jar we are using was released under the 1.1 license, and I would
rather not update the jar at this late date - Opinions?

    Also along these lines there was some question on the Rhino
License (Mozilla) when Apache adopted the 2.0 license, last I
heard we could continue to use it, but things may have changed
without me knowing about it.

    Any other comments or concerns?
