I'm quite excited about this, for example that mean we could generate
PDF for our DocBook docs in the GNOME project without requiring a Java
setup on the build box. A lot of things becomes possible.
It currently depends on some packages which are not really standard
like the PangoPDF stuff, but in the long term this should bring XSL-FO
to the masses of free software developpers, that's really good news :-)
