I tested with the attached example and the result is not what I
expected. It is also possible that I don't understand what best fit means.
I was expecting yellow, yellow, yellow. Instead I get yellow, blue,
yellow. Can you please comment?

Hi,
as you may be aware, Seifeddine Dridi has been working for the past few
months on an extension to manage the white space available in
a document. It is based on the fo:multi-switch element and selects the
first fo:multi-case child that fits on the page. That allows to define
smaller variants in case there is not enough space left on the page.
The approach is similar to what is described here:
http://wiki.apache.org/xmlgraphics-fop/WhitespaceManagement
All patches, comments and discussions are available in the following
JIRA issue:
https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FOP-2293
The code is here:
http://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/xmlgraphics/fop/branches/Temp_WhitespaceManagement
It has reached a state where we believe it is ready to be merged to
trunk.
This vote will run until Friday, 25th April 16:00 UTC.
+1 from me.
Thanks,
Vincent
