Hi everyone, The Xerces-J team is very happy to announce that version 2.6.1 of Xerces-J is now available.
This release contains support for OASIS XML Catalogs and now includes the XML Commons Resolver (version 1.1) with the distribution. It also provides an experimental implementation of the latest drafts for Document Object Model Level 3 Core and Load/Save (see beta2-dom3-Xerces-J-bin.2.6.1.zip).

Specifically, the significant changes introduced in this release are: * Added support for XML Catalogs. [Michael Glavassevich] * Implemented some remaining XML Schema errata and fixed several schema related bugs. [Sandy Gao] * Fixed various DOM Level 3 bugs. [Neil Delima, Kohsuke Kawaguchi, Michael Glavassevich, Elena Litani, K. Venugopal] * Implemented well-formedness checking for LSSerializer (DOM Level 3). [Elena Litani] * Modified the XJavac task used by the build file so that Xerces can be built on Mac OS X with Apple JDK 1.4. [Alex Milowski] * Fixed possible security hole: the features and properties set on the parser were not propagated to the XMLSchemaLoader.
