I would have to double check, but I think OPENJADE offers better backend 
support.

Personally I think the real question should be, Why *JADE*? We should be
doing whatever it takes to move to XML/XSLT.
Using Apache xerces I can transform a 1000 page document in less than a 
minute.
I have used xercess-C++ in my current project and I can tell you one thing. It's 
object model is broken.

It is a fine API in general but the way it's object model is broken, makes me 
hate it.. really..

 Given a better choice I wouldn't use it. But I haven't used any other XML 
toolkits either. My XML experience is pretty limited..

Well what I believe we are really after is Xalan which Xerces is required 
to run. I believe it is Xalan that actually does the XSLT transformations.

Correct.

Xerces is the parser (both DOM and SAX).

I have found Xerces+Xalan to find issues in my XML/XSLT 'code' which
xsltproc didn't clearly label as wrong, whereas xsltproc understands
EXSLT natively.

I'm not contributing, so it's not an issue for me.

However isn't the whole point of CVS to make re-merging changes like this easy?
