I don't know if you've been following the activities on the FOP mailing list, but they are in the process of doing a core redesign. Based on some of the comments on the XSmiles features page I posed a few quick question to the FOP team.
Their response seems to have been fairly positive, so I was wondering if any members of the XSmiles team would be able to post to the FOP list with some details as to how XSmiles uses FOP and how integration between the two could be enhanced. In paticular there is a movement afoot to allow a more dynamic rendering of the FOP content using Swing components, as opposed to the current more static viewing approach. Support for dynamic changes to the DOM tree (via scripting) may also be possible. It looks like there is a great opportunity here for synergy between the two groups. The possibility exists for the XSmiles and FOP teams to develop an elegant approach to integrating their technologies that could be extended to include Batik. The vision of a single, cross-platform client that supports all of the major W3 standards may be attainable!
