> there are 2 github repos for Xerces:
> * [https://github.com/apache/xerces-j/] (last published artifact:
> {{{}xerces:xerces:2.4.0{}}})
> * [https://github.com/apache/xerces2-j/] (last published artifact:
> {{{}xerces:xercesImpl:2.12.2{}}})
> the xerces-j repo appears to be much more up to date than the xerces2-j one
> despite the fact that the xerces-j repo seems to be where most people are
> making pull requests.
> Neither provide a clear indication of the reason for having two repositories
> or which one is considered active.
> Looking at the history of each I can see that up until April 2019 they seem
> to have the same changes:
> [https://github.com/apache/xerces-j/commits/main]
> [https://github.com/apache/xerces2-j/commits/trunk/]
> although the commit hash's differ:

> If it is the case that [https://github.com/apache/xerces-j/] is the correct
> repo to use then please make the other one read-only with a note to let users
> know. It's confusing and could be wasting peoples time if they are making
> PR's to a dead repo. There are currently 10 pull requests on the
> [https://github.com/apache/xerces2-j/pulls] repo, perhaps they need rebasing
> onto xerces-j.
>
> also, please consider merging [https://github.com/apache/xerces-j/pull/1] as
> I have another branch that I want to make a pull request for but would like
> to at least have some CI in place first.
