Hi,

for OOo 3 we plan to exchange the Java Xerces/Xalan duo, once added to provide stable XSLT quality, with the Java Saxon XSLT processor. By this the XSLT filters would benefit from its implementation of the newer W3C standards of the XPath 2.0, XSLT 2.0, and XQuery 1.0 specifications.

(Personally believe I have noticed as well a better error reporting and efficiency behavior of Saxon9).

Dependencies to Xerces/Xalan in the OOo sources are under progress to be adapted to the new environment in my CWS xsltfilter10.

Unlikely this will make it into OOo 3.0, but otherwise it will become available in OOo 3.1.

Hi Svante,

I am glad to see that more development is happening with the associated XML technologies here. I understand that much more capabilities will be possible with the newer specifications and better processor in Saxon. My main question is will these new capabilities be implemented in the XForm part of OpenOffice.org? My main interest is having not just the xform backend, but other features such as the xforms:repeat capabilities and other more advanced operations. Is this something that will be coming with the new Saxon processor?

Regards
Jonathon
