Hi Maarten,
I would like to open a discussion on the purpose/features for 2.0
For instance what will be the minimum supported JDK
Are we going to support generics, enums annotations ....
Also - are you /we intending to support new features, for instance does the
current implementation block so new wizzy feature that you really want/need
to implement
What is the timescale for the new version
When 2.0 gets produced, how long will 1.x be taken forward.
----
Personally I would like to target 5.0 + and backport via retroweaver or
something similar if needed, but I don't want to start a flame war (just
yet)
I may be able to provide some time to help in the activity. We currently use
dom4j heavily in some products, so I would be particularly interested in
adding some features, to enable extended behavior to not be implementation
dependent, and in increasing the performance.

Subject: [dom4j-dev] dom4j 1.x and dom4j 2.0
Hi,
I've started with the dom4j 2.0 development. The biggest change will be
a major refactoring of the current implementation and a new project
structure. This will hopefully make
a. the sources better maintainable
b. it easier to write new extensions
I will try to keep the dom4j interfaces as much backwards compatible as
possible, but some changes will probably break this backwards compatibility.
Because I think this can take a while, I've created a branch in CVS so
we can work further on a 1.7 release of dom4j. If you want to commit
something for this 1.7 release, make sure you do it in the
DOM4J_1_X_BRANCH, otherwise it won't be included in the 1.7 release
regards,
Maarten
