Mark,
Thanks again for taking care of this for us!
Since you aren't a committer (yet! ;-)), when you complete the file(s),
create a new bugzilla entry, and attach any file(s):
<http://issues.apache.org/bugzilla/enter_bug.cgi?product=Fop>
As for the page, model it after this:
<http://xmlgraphics.apache.org/fop/maillist.html>
Here's the XML document used to create the above web page file:
<http://svn.apache.org/viewcvs.cgi/xmlgraphics/fop/trunk/src/
documentation/content/xdocs/maillist.xml?view=markup>
It sounds like you have a good idea about the rest of it. If you have
any other questions, just post back...

Jeremias,
I'm set and ready to, just to be clear and I do apologise for not
being on the ball straight away with what must appear to be a trivial
task to most of you ,but I hope to up to your speeds and skill very
soon.
1. convert the text file into an xml document with previously suggest
markup
2. modify decorateWithDisabledList to load the XML document
3. filter the output of decorateWithDisabledList based a lookup passed
in? Would it be too much to ask for you give me an example of an input
and output for this method?
4. create some website with XSLT, Cocoon and Forrest (Nice)
Will I need a password for login for submitting to SVN or would you
prefer another method of code submission?
Kindest regards
Mark

Great!
So the main task would be to modify the static method
"decorateWithDisabledList(IOFileFilter)" in
test/java/org/apache/fop/layoutengine/LayoutEngineTestSuite.java so it
loads the new XML file instead of the old disabled-testcases.txt and
builds the filter according to the entries in there.
If you'd like to create the website page, too, that's probably going
to be a little more difficult as it involves setting up a special XSLT
in the Cocoon sitemap for the Forrest website. But it could be an
interesting thing to do. No problem if you only do the first part.
Looking forward to your patch! Proves that it's sometimes simply a
matter of calling for help and you get it. Thanks, Mark! If you need
any more info, just ask.

I've had a idea, hopefully a good one. If the disabled-testcases.txt
were rewritten as an XML file additional information could be added
to
each disabled test case why it is disabled. This information could
be
transformed by Forrest into a page ("known issues") for our website.
And it could even be used as content for a release notes document.
Example:
block-container_reference-orientation_bug36391.xml
block_font-stretch.xml
....
becomes:
<disabled-testcases>
<testcase name="block-container_reference-orientation_bug36391"
bugzilla="36391">
Blah describes the deficiency of the test case blah.
</testcase>
<testcase name="block_font-stretch">
font-stretch is not implemented, yet.
</testcase>
....
</disabled-testcases>
Anyone want to take a stab? No knowledge about FOP internals needed.
