       Body:
what's the justification for not using JAXP?

AFAIK ant also uses JAXP to locate its xerces parser, so as soon as any plugins fire 
up it will be sucked down anyway.

If all you want to get rid of is xerces, then that's a different issue - but is that 
only because it is heavy, or is it broken? If its a haviness issue, I don't see why 
this needs to be fixed before 1.1. Potentially a lot of things will need to be tested 
if maven only provides xpp3 I imagine.

    Summary: Make Jelly use the xpp3 SAX Driver

Description:
I couldn't quite get this to work but I know it's possible to make Jelly use the xpp3 
SAX driver which would completely eliminate all JAXP dependencies from Maven and we 
would strictly be using xpp3. So we could get rid of xerces as a dependency. The xpp3 
parser seems to have problems with name spaces but I used a version a couple months of 
xpp3 HEAD.
