Hi Jeremy,
The xvfb solution is in the FAQ. Have a look at
xml-cocoon2/xdocs/faq.xml around line 588.
The only problem with the PJA toolkit is that it's licenced under the
GPL (not LGPL), which has implications:
http://www.fsf.org/licenses/gpl-faq.html#TOCIfLibraryIsGPL
http://www.fsf.org/licenses/gpl-faq.html#TOCIfInterpreterIsGPL (last
paragraph)
I'm not a lawyer, but reading those links above say that if a library
is licenced under the GPL, the program using it must be too.
Cheers,
Marcus
