Normal semantic versioning is x.y.z, where changing z means only bug fixes or 
documentation changes, y is features added, and x is architectural changes. So 
I'd favor 2.3.0.

But I'd also favor putting out one last 2.2.x with only bug fixes, and starting 
2.3 with the Maven build and feature additions.

Have we agreed that the 3.0-features-on-a-2.0-base will have their own 
namespace, or be in the Xalan namespace, rather than in the XSLT namespace?

Subject: Re: Xalan-J release discussion

I don't think we should release new features in a maintenance release like 
2.7.x. A new feature should be in 2.x.0. Or it maybe be worth saying this is 
3.0 which would happen to match the "3" of XSLT 3.

I would expect (YMMV) that a new feature release would also contain all current 
bug fixes from the 2.7.x branch.

I think what I am saying is that we need to have a clear and simple story for 
users.

How does the above match with everyone's work and plans?

Hi all,
   Is is ok, if I could make Xalan-J 2.7.4 RC (to release, Xalan-J's
XSLT 3 subset implementation, from dev repos branch xalan-j_xslt3.0)
via Ant build process and make that available on this list for review?

The document 
https://xalan.apache.org/xalan-j/xsl3/xalanj_xslt3.0_implementation_status.pdf,
has latest description of Xalan-J's current XSLT 3 support.

As per my analysis, all the XSLT core features are working fine (and
on top of that, we've an XSLT 3 implementation), on the dev repos
branch xalan-j_xslt3.0.
