This is only in the xslt service and could probably be made to use xalan2 in
a few minutes while retaining backward compatibility. I can give it a whirl
if you like.

Torque in 2.1 uses xerces to build a java object representing a data model.
If the compat jar isn't working I can probably make the adjustments. I
realize the interfaces should work but I can probably make the compile

I'm not sure what do about this one. It would cause some problems if I
swapped the jars. Not for the service itself but people have written
handlers based on helma package names.

Ok, more things to look at :-)
