[Uploaders of batik package in CC as well.]
Markus,
this is kind of a response to your suggestion to communicate with
upstream. I admit I do not know what conclusion to draw from it.
Kind regards
Andreas.

Subject: [jira] [Commented] (BATIK-1239) Class XMLConstants vanished from Batik
[
https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/BATIK-1239?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=16597050#comment-16597050

Glenn Adams commented on BATIK-1239:
------------------------------------
I performed the modularization a few years back when converting to a maven
build architecture. One of the problems being addressed in that process was
eliminating circularities among the graph of batik artifact dependencies, which
resulted in the current modularization choices. It is clear that other choices
are possible as well, and it is only in the use of these artifacts in a
particular application of batik that it can be determined whether the
modularization is adequate or needs improvements.
I am not (at present) working on batik, and I know of no member of the XML
Graphics project that is planning to make changes, other than Simon's work to
respond to occasional bug requests.
In light of the volunteer nature of the project, I suggest you contribute one
or more patches that addresses the issues you encounter.
