Hi, it seems that the Xalan-Bug http://nagoya.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=5779 doesn't affect current cocoon codebase.
The current AbstractTextSerializer has a workarround for this which uses a simple identity transform Stylesheet. This Solution seems to work fine for the XML Serializer but doesn't work for TextSerializer which includes a XML declaration for it's output. The current workarround seems to have strange effect on all Serializer's that inherit from AbstractTextSerializer: setting of serialization properties like "omit-xml-declaration" and all other properties for TextSerializer is ignored. I switched AbstractTextSerializer back to the version before this bug and it seems that the default identity transformer handles namespaces in the right way.Serializer properties like (omit-xml-declaration, encoding ...) now were never ignored and working well for Text- and XMLSerializer's.
