Second Working Draft of XSL 2.0 published

The second Working Draft for XSL 2.0 -- still called "Design Notes for
Extensible Stylesheet Language" because it's still just the new stuff
and doesn't integrate the preexisting text -- is now available at
http://www.w3.org/TR/xslfo20/

Changes since the last publication include:

 - Added non-rectangular shapes

 - Added copyfitting

 - Added 2.2.12.2, change master every n pages

 - Added list of properties

 - Clarified word-widow definition

 - Several new issues linked to bugzilla, and others made into notes.

 - Various editorial changes

The XSL FO SG is soliciting public feedback.  IMO, non-rectangular
shapes and copyfitting are significant additions to XSL and do deserve
scrutiny, but feedback on any aspect is appreciated.

There are links to some specific Bugzilla items in the document, or you
can create new Bugzilla items or send mail (see the Status section of
the document for where to send it, as always).

Regards,
