There have historically been lots of problems with OpenJade. Whoever
wants to make the change should verify that PDF versions of all of our
documents in the tree can build with OpenJade (and with/without index,
etc..).
If it works, great. Just because it is on a sourceforge page doesn't
make it better maintained. Hardly anyone was working on it when I had
a commit bit to the openjade sourceforge project.
