Why would you want a wider category than parsing? It seems to me that an XML parser is the most basic piece of software a developer would understand and would be a natural division. Also, regarding your crimson comment. There are current and probably future developers that are/will be using crimson and I think it should be available for download somewhere on the apache site. The web pages for crimson already say that future development will focus on the Xerces2 parser. Perhaps another idea would be to base the categories on communities. I think for parsing, there is a single community (split into languages) and most issues are discussed on xerces-j-dev or xerces-c-dev or for crimson, general@xml. There is also a single XSLT community at xalan-dev, which has more than one java transform engine. I am less sure about other projects. This would make it easier to point to the appropriate mailing list. -Edwin --------------------------------------------------------------------- In case of troubles, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
