Status check: This appears to be outdated, and to overlap with other work in progress. I believe we have already dealt with CI as a separate change.. I am dealing with bootclasspath. This was needed in earlier Javas because Sun insisted on shipping versions of of xerces and xalan in the standard libraries as org.apache.* (without repackaging them), preventing users from running the new code unless bootclasspath was prefixed or the -endorsedlib mechanism was used (which is essentially a more official version of the same thing). Since the introduction of JAXP and TrAX (circa Java 1.5-1.6), the java libraries have been changed to ship with the Apache code moved to com.sun.org.apache.*, removing that conflict. There may still be users who have the old workarounds in place so we should tolerate running in that mode (see recent discussion of Version)... but we don't need to use it ourselves. The Maven build prototype fixes most or all of the binary dependencies by downloading from Central. I expect to merge that soon. (Best practice is one issue per PR, though sometimes that issue unavoidably subsumes multiple tightly internlinked sub-issues, as is the case with the Maven migration uber-PR. Separation lets us discuss, refine, and approve them individually.) -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
