Re: Donation of JAXP 1.3 Sources to Apache

[Neeraj Bajaj]

It is mostly an addition for the new functionality
(New Schema Validation Framework, javax.xml.validation,
New Schema Datatypes, javax.xml.datatype,
New Object model neutral XPath APIs, javax.xml.xpath)
introduced in JAXP 1.3
There have also been some changes in Xerces/xalan codebase to make those 
additions work.
There are some other changes too as per other additions and 
modifications in the spec.

Pardon my ignorance, but are these sources to replace
code already present in Xalan and Xerces, or just to
add to them?
Thanks,

Excellent news!  Thank to Sun folk and Geir for
picking up the ball on 
this one.

Note: once the papers are in the Hallowed Halls, I
presume that Neeraj 
will get some consensus from xml-commons, xalan-dev,
and xerces-j-dev as 
to how to actually check this in?  I'm presuming you
have someone with 
commit access to xml-commons, which is the
pre-existing home for JAXP. 
(Although incubator should check the legal issues, I
don't think the 
code needs to checkin thru there).

But I know Xerces and Xalan may have specific
dependencies on 
xml-commons code, so we probably need to branch to
allow current 
versions to work as-is and let them plan new
versions with 1.3 support.

xml-common, xerces & xalan communities,
I have learnt that legal issues regarding donation
     

has been resolved and 
   

latest version of CCLA has been signed.
So would like to make the actual code grant of
     

JAXP 1.3 APIs + 
   

implementation ASAP. I will start the preparation
today and will be back with actual code grant with
     

in 2 days.
