I was going to say that Pascal had a good point, and that it was really up to Glenn. +1 from me "My religion is simple.

Re: [VOTE] Merge Temp_TrueTypeInPostScript branch into trunk
If Vincent would like this in the 1.1 release, then I'm in favor of a merge to trunk. So I'd say +1.

Re: [VOTE] Merge Temp_TrueTypeInPostScript branch into trunk
Hi, Since Glenn is in the process to release the FOP v1.1, I'm not sure it's time to merge such branch to trunk. I guess this new feature will not be part of the 1.1 release. If merging have to be done quickly, then we should create a 1.1 maintenance branch to ensure that merging will not affect the releasing process. Or if this new feature have to be part of the 1.1 release, then perhaps we have to delay the release process *after* this merge. any thought? 2012/6/15 Vincent Hennebert : > As you may have noticed, I’ve recently spent some time updating the > Temp_TrueTypeInPostScript branch to the latest trunk and doing some > clean-up (thanks to Robert for updating the testcases to JUnit 4). > > We have been using the code from this branch for quite a while now and > it has proven to work reasonably well.
