I would be happy to help out here although posting to that list still makes sense. The key thing we need to do is work on creating a community that will support the ongoing development and maintenance. There are not many people that contribute to Xerces these days and any reticence you may sense is because we would want to make sure that there was enough interest to support over the medium/long term. Its not going to be code we know about or can support easily so the worst thing for us would be to accept the (very generous) code gift but then be unable to support the users that come with it. On a technical level I think what you have done is really cool and useful. I would be happy to chat more about this if you want.
