> Are there any known remaining issues for the 3.2.0 release? Nothing known; I didn't have the time I had hoped to get some testing done with my application, which I really should do before I ask for a vote but I won't hold things up much longer either way.

I don't want to be over-dramatic, but it was my impression that if I hadn't been willing to dive in in 2015, this project would probably be in fairly bad shape because of the open security issues. I don't know who else was going to jump in and fix it. I didn't have the time to wait that out. > There are a number of outstanding patches which various Linux and other > distributions are carrying in order to be able to compile which could > really do with folding into a new release.

It would be much the same as with Xerces, the difference being the PMC was at least still around and responding when I had to jump in, so there wasn't a problem getting commit access at the time. If the PMC itself has gone dead, though, they should be getting attic'd by the board, due to missing board reports. So somebody must be keeping it alive, I would probably start by just offering to help and if you get no response I think your only recourse is to the ASF board. (I have no exposure to Xalan, so it's not on my list of kittens to rescue, I'm afraid.) -- Scott --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: c-dev-unsubscr...@xerces.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: c-dev-h...@xerces.apache.org
