Yep, OpenJDK Java 8 works; it supports the 1.3 source and target versions.

Possibly useful bit of script:
export JAVA_HOME=$(ls -l /etc/alternatives/java_sdk | sed -e 's/.* -> \(.*\)/\1/'); echo JAVA_HOME=$JAVA_HOME

Build in progress on Fedora-under-WSL.

(Speaking of weasels, that was the DOM Working Group's official mascot -- in honor of the debates over "weasel wording" in the Recommendations. There's at least one photo of the WG members with one of us, probably me, holding the weasel.)

I thought Java 8. You should be able to tell from the Ant build file. AFK.

    I've started pulling the pieces together so I can test and tweak.

    Sanity check: Which version of Java are we officially (a)
    compiling under and (b) compiling for? I currently have OpenJDK 11
    and 19 installed. As checked out, the head branch's build says
    it's expecting folks to use Java 1.3; the earliest version 11 can
    be told to compile for is 1.6.

    Which branch/fork is the current release candidate?

        Hi Gary,
           I've had a private conversation with Joseph Kessselman
        (I'm copying
        this mail to him as well) few days ago, where he kindly wrote
        to me
        that, he'd like to fix the XalanJ implementation and tests
        build for
        Linux for the XalanJ 2.7.3 release.

        I believe that, we should wait for his work on that, for
        using that
        within XalanJ 2.7.3 release.

        possible, so there is no guarantee of even that.
