A dangling fox:dynamic-content? I don't think it's a good idea, even
implementation wise it would be quite cumbersome to deal with.

Yes, that's why I prefer my second proposal that puts multi-switch inside the
extension element. But the majority seems to lean towards the use of an
extension property on multi-switch anyway, and as the one who's implementing it
you get to choose what's easiest for you.

Sorry about that. I worked on that patch using the latest trunk revision of FOP
which isn't configured to use Java 1.5.
{quote}
Actually, FOP trunk must also be 1.5 compliant.

Never mind, the patch is not supposed to be committed anyway.

Ah ok. Shall I commit your patch rev2 from 11th of September then? Or wait for
the next one?
Thanks,
Vincent

> 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
