RC3a seems to be rather stable and the changes since then look non-critical to me. What about doing the release now (read: next days) (and maybe 0.20.5a later if we get more hyphenation patterns back)
Or should we make the changes proposed by Jörg (improved memory
usage with tables - see http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=fop-dev&m=105399053227758 )
which would require another release candidate.
I'd rather close the book on the maintenance code so that something could be done on HEAD. Take the footnote space problem I analysed yesterday: while I know quite precisely what went wrong (two different approaches to account for footnote space working concurrently) I have no idea what breaks if I attempt a fix.
While HEAD has a lot of technical details to fix, the overall approach seams to be much more promising.
