The JDK contains an older Xerces implementation, version 2.7.1. Although there were updates in JDK 7 to bring in some changes, we did not bring it completely up to date to any later release. The goal of this JEP is to complete the update and bring the JDK to Xerces' latest release, 2.11.0.
Xerces 2.11.0 supports JDK 1.4.2 (!) and up. I am curious if you intend to avoid using newer language features or APIs in the JDK implementation so that you can stay closely in-sync and integrate future updates more easily?
