Mukul Gandhi commented on XALANJ-2823:
--------------------------------------

[~singingbush]
The work present on Xalan's code repos branch xalan-j_xslt3.0_mvn, is an XSLT 
3.0 processor that needs to be released as a beta version. This code is not 
backward compatible with Xalan's XSLT 1.0 implementation.

>From my point of view, I think, Xalan's code on branches xalan-j_xslt3.0_mvn 
>and master should not be merged with each other in the git sense. If we do so, 
>Xalan will loose a compliant XSLT 1.0 processor.

>From what I can remember from previous discussions, Xalan's next release may 
>comprise of two release archives, one from the branch xalan-j_xslt3.0_mvn 
>(which will be Xalan's XSLT 3.0 beta release) and another from the branch 
>master (which will be Xalan XSLT 1.0 processor's new maintenance release).

The reason why Xalan's XSLT 3.0 processor jar dependencies are kept locally 
within xalan-j_xslt3.0_mvn branch's libs directory, is because these specific 
jar dependencies are known to work correctly with the code within Xalan's 
branch xalan-j_xslt3.0_mvn. It'll be fine, if the dependencies kept within libs 
folder may be fetched from Maven central repos, provided someone from Xalan 
team can publish these jars on Maven central repos.

Xerces can make a new release (which the Xerces team has to decide), which 
Xalan can use for new releases from branches xalan-j_xslt3.0_mvn and master.
