Here's another: +1 to accept the donation. Regards, Arved Sandstrom

I'm presuming that it will only depend on JDK 1.2 and other code in xml-commons, and not have other external dependencies. Correct? ---- you Norman Walsh <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote ---- > Some time ago, Stefano started a thread[1] about donating the entity > resolver code[2] I wrote to the xml-commons project.

We should make sure that we've got +1 votes both on the submission and on making Norm a committer to xml-commons from both enough people and from at least *two* separate xml.apache.org subprojects. Hopefully this resolver is such a blindingly useful item as shown by the fact that it's a common answer to regular questions on at least half a dozen mailing lists... In case we haven't gotten enough votes: +1 on donating Norm's resolver to xml-commons +1 on making Norm a committer on xml-commons > I think I can get > everything lined up and ready to go, with one > exception: I am unsure what package name to use.

Off the top of my head I'd suggest org.apache.xml.resolver.*, since it's clearly XML related and we won't have future conflicts with any other Apache projects - I'd like to ensure that we can share this with any of xml or jakarta-land cleanly. (Plus Xalan has a couple of potentially useful utilities in org.apache.xml already, if we ever get them generalized and if others want to share them someday) But I'm not a stickler on this issue. Norm, have you looked at the existing xml-commons tree and the first 'preview' release posted yet? My proposal for you would be to check in: xml-commons/java/resolver.xml - Ant build script, support at least 'all' and 'clean' targets xml-commons/java/src/org/apache/xml/resolver/* - sources xml-commons/java/xdocs/resolver/* - any other user documentation; this will be either transformed (if it's in xml) or just copied (if you have stuff in static html) into a /docs directory during a build. When done & ready: edit xml-commons/build.xml to call resolver.xml when it calls which.xml - Shane > Be seeing you, > norm > [1] http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=xml-apache-general&m=100703897109799&w=2 > [2] http://www.sun.com/xml/developers/resolver/ ===== <eof aka="mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]"; "http://www.otnemem.com/"=.sig /> __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
