fop was available in CentOS-7:
http://mirror.centos.org/centos/7/os/x86_64/Packages/fop-1.1-6.el7.noarch.rpm
It is still available Fedora.
This is the one package missing from claiming full support for CentOS-8 for Yocto Project (documentation build depends on fop).
NOTE: I am willing to work on this as a co-maintainer. fas: ttorling
-------------
Naively cloning f30 branch and performing a local build (on CentOS-8) (fop-2.2):
ant is available as module
error: Failed build dependencies:
apache-commons,
avalon-framework,
batik,
fontbox,
javapackages-local,
junit,
qdox,
servlet,
xmlgraphics-commons,
xmlunit
Similar for f32 branch (fop-2.4).
error: Failed build dependencies:
apache-commons-io
apache-commons-logging
batik
fontbox
javapackages-local
junit
qdox
servlet

This package has changed maintainer in the Fedora.
Reassigning to the new maintainer of this component.
Yocto Project switched to building docs with Sphinx, so fop is no longer needed. I also no longer depend on centos-8. Closing this for now. If someone else wants to pick it up, please reopen and assign yourself.
