It would still be better though to move the creation of the penalty inside the 
alternative.

I didn't understand what you wanted to say. The best fit penalty is supposed to 
act as a container for the whole set of alternatives, it can't be the other way 
around.

That would be better encapsulation, and that would avoid you to create another 
one in the else part at the end of the method.

Which method are you referring to?

> I have been working on an extension for whitespace management, similar to 
> what's described here: 
> http://wiki.apache.org/xmlgraphics-fop/WhitespaceManagement
> The logic of the extension is very simple: the user defines a set of 
> alternatives that he wishes to insert at the end of a page, then if there is 
> enough space left, FOP will pick the alternative that best matches the user's 
> selection criteria (first fit, smallest fit, biggest fit).
> This is my first work on FOP and it took me almost 2 months to reach this 
> stage in development. But it's not the end of course, so I'm relying on your 
> feedback to improve it.
> Thank you
