Sure if you want to wait 0-6 months for a response.

Can we go back to the root of the problem which is the distribution of the schemas? This may have already been put to bed but, can't we get permission from Sun to distribute these puppies?

Why not publish the src jar in addition to the binary?

I've thought about this some more and have some major reservations about this approach.

- The generated code wont have apache headers, so we can't actually check in into svn. There might be a way to fix this with a script of some kind.

- More seriously, this will eliminate traceability to the source schema. Sun has in the past fixed errors in the schema without changing anything that can be recognized from the generated source. (I think they changed a date in a comment). This is a major problem IMNSHO.

So, I think we need to keep the source schemas in svn. One way to do this would be to move this module into the tck project and publish the binary jar from there. If we found a way to change the headers we might be able to publish a source jar too.

So, I'm -0.999 on this proposal at the moment... I think we need to find a way to get the source schemas into svn.

I've implemented the proposal to not ship any sun schemas or dtds to avoid licensing questions and to check in the xmlbeans generated files.

Please vote promptly.

I've provided patches for trunk and branches/1.1. I expect that the 1.1 patch should work for 1.1.1 also, I'm hoping someone else will check for me.

Before releasing 1.1.1 including this work we'd have to release the proposed new specs jar with the generated xmlbeans classes in it: this would involve changing the version number to 1.0 in several places.
