Hi,
There is not a direct dependency. The STAX-parser shipped with the JDK is too slow (said by some people). I am not sure if this is still true with Java 7 and Java 8, but In Java 6 it was! When having Woodstock in classpath, it plugs this XML parser into the JDK with SPI (like our lucene codecs). Solr should work without woodstox, but you may have slower XML imports (StAX is used by UpdateHandler#XMLLoader only).

I could not find any dependencies on these libraries. Did I miss anything or is it safe to remove them? -- Regards, Varun Thacker
