Anthony, since I've heard a number of times now about the desire to run Batik/FOP on GNU Classpath I'd like to help make sure this can happen. However, the last time I tried to do anything in this direction I was utterly stuck. Do you have any pointers, hints, advice for me how to build a normal Java project that has an Ant build using GNU Classpath on Windows? The best thing would be a walk-through. :-) I don't have a Unix box available to me, nor do I have much patience with complicated build processes and extensive gathering of external dependencies each needing a lot of setup time. Burned child, you know. :-)
