file and there was no jaxen in it.

Subject: [dom4j-dev] On Jaxen/dom4j relationship


Hi, All --

DOM4J and Jaxen have long had a circular dependency, and I hope I'm  
not alone in thinking that this is a bad thing.  The topic of "what  
Jaxen version in dom4j" came up recently, and I've been personally  
bitten by the dom4j JAR containing a version of Jaxen that was  
incompatible with the Jaxen version that my code elsewhere was  
expecting but where dom4j's version was taking precedence...

So, I would like to propose that we make dom4j depend honestly on Jaxen:

1) Jaxen is no longer bundled inside dom4j-*.jar
2) The Jaxen dom4j navigator moves inside the dom4j project.
3) dom4j explicitly calls out which version of Jaxen it depends on.

Thoughts?

     -- Paul
