There's a small typo that I wish to correct within my previous mail.
The correct text is as follows,

"xalan-java repos's branch 'xalan-j_xslt3.0' has lot of first time
XSLT 3.0 and XPath 3.1 *features* implementations."

I guess that, it may be ok if we deliver like following, XalanJ
release packages comprising the next XalanJ release,

xalan-xsl1 2.7.4 (XSLT 1.0 + XPath 1.0 implementation release)

xalan-xsl3alpha 2.7.4 (XSLT 3.0 + XPath 3.1 implementation release,
using an implementation available on XalanJ dev repos branch
'xalan-j_xslt3.0')

For producing both above mentioned XalanJ release packages, we could
use an existing concept of 'tags' to freeze the XalanJ codebase before
we build these XalanJ release packages.

To produce the above two mentioned XalanJ release packages, we need to
finalize which XalanJ's repos branch/branches should have the XalanJ
codebase to perform XalanJ builds for next XalanJ release.

>From my side, if you wish to take XalanJ's next release's
responsibility that shall be great. If I could provide any support,
for producing next XalanJ release, I'll be happy to do so.

May be you, Gary and others as well, could share further their opinion
about this topic.
