Digging around in docs-build via Mikes recent thread reminded me of all this.
Christophe, any interest/cycles to revisit? It might be nice to move up before this analysis ages too much. My thought to proceed after reviewing the thread: Should we collaborate on a new docs-build w/ java8 min, external ant, saxon, old jars removed, and minimal patch to style/ included? I think this keeps us out of anyones way just trying to build and check in xforms.
