Hi All,
We have prepared a jaxp update for 7u4. The listed changes have been
posted to the jdk7u-dev alias with "7u4 Request for approval for CR
7121110 - JAXP 1.4.5 update 1 for 7u4".
With this update, we are adding jaxp sources back into the jdk7
repository, which means we are abandoning the jaxp bundle download
process. This is a significant change. We'd like to hear if you have
any concerns. If no objection, we'd like to push the change within
the next week.
The webrev is here:

This is good news. So what about jdk8? I think the protocol with 7u is
that changes go into 8 first. Also are you expecting to keep the code
in 7u and 8 in sync?
Kelly asked for 6-open and jdk8 as well. Since we're changing the jaxp
bundle process, we thought we would do the same for 6-open and jdk8 once
this works out. But we can take the change to jdk8 first if this is
approved. The only question I had was that the jdk8 modularization
would change the jaxp source structure. But Kelly thought that's not a
problem. I guess we don't mind another big changeset :)
