While I must say I'm quite disappointed that Jacek has decided to create his own proprietary derivative of Xalan/XSLTC, he definitely has the right to do that and has my good wishes at making some good code. When it comes to licensing issues, some of them are quite simple: read the license - it's

Do I take it that this means that the discussed improvements to XSLTC are no longer Apache license compatible and cannot therefore be relied upon to be something that can be integrated into Cocoon in the future? If so, it looks like, given the speed benefits, we need to encourage participation

Jacek, I am very disappointed to hear this. You were the originator, but a lot of work has been done by others on XSLTC since you moved on. It does not seem ethical or even legal to take open source software -- even if you were the original architect -- and use it for your own purposes. Yo
