Of course it would be _usable_...

My guess is the demand for this is still quite low (esp. WRT pdf output),
due to the extended functionality offered by the Acrobat SDK, which allows
the .NET-minded ( C# / VB ) folks to _easily_ generate pdf output from
whatever source they want (w.o. the intermediate use of anything like
XML/XSL-FO).

As far is I understand M$ tactics, they'll just wait for fop-dev to complete
their work, then suddenly release some nifty tool called Microsoft
FO-'something'? (perhaps add it as a supplement to Office 2006, which will
of course be released in fall 2007 ;) )


Greetz,

Andreas
