No, no further releases are planned from the maintenance branch, and all development is focused on CVS Head.
I am browsing through archives to find pointers for performance improvement, and found the above comment a bit confusing.
Why having a maintainance branch, if you do not intend to release anything from it?
Well there have been releases from it in the past, since the code was forked for redesign. The trouble with the maintainance branch is the design restricts the addition of significant new features, i.e. keep-* properties. It is possible to make minor refinements, but the development team prefers to work on a new design that supports more XSL-FO features than is possible in the maintainance code.
This is an issue since I cannot use unreleased CVS code even if it performs much better.
Why not? Even released code goes through no official test cycle, the development team relies on user feedback to find bugs.
