Since you addressed me personally, I can simply reiterate as I have in Jira (which is where this proposal should be, this is not a GitHub project) that I don't have any exposure to, and thus no source of resources with which to work on, anything in the DTD code unless it's a trivial fix that doesn't change the ABI and I'm already doing some other work on the code. Nothing else has arisen with the code that necessitated a release for my project, so there hasn't been any opportunity for me to look at anything else. I am not stopping anybody else from doing the work, and nobody is stopping others from joining the project as committers, which is certainly needed for obvious reasons. One issue that's perhaps less obvious is that a fix that requires a 4.0 rev may not get uptake by the few distributors of the current version. I imagine that's why Red Hat took the approach they took with it and just made it leak memory instead. Perhaps that's the best option in the end after all. I really have not looked at the issue at all in any depth to understand the trade-offs or possible fixes. -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
