Hello!
I was wondering if Java Xalan is still active? The mail from Roman
Shaposhnik on the xalan-j-users mailing list from october 2018 [1]
suggests that there's not really any activity any longer and the last
release is from April 2014.
I also don't see any new commits lately [2] except the addition of a
.gitignore file in 2019. And there seems to be a confusion with the
GitHub projects, because there are two of them [3][4]. One with four
pull requests. PR 2 and PR 4 try to solve the same issue where the
serializer mangles high-surrogate UTF-16 characters (-> emojis) [5][6].
The related XALANJ-2617 tracker entry [7] seems to be a pressing issue,
but there's no new release to fix this yet. The bug tracker [8] has 257
open issues, some dating back to the beginning of this century.
Is Xalan-J a candidate for the attic?
best regards,
Daniel
