Justyna,
Thanks for the scoop ;-). I did a little more digging and actually found a couple of posts on the Xerces/Xalan lists where Sun is offering to donate the JAXP 1.3 sources to Apache. Sounds like it's just a matter of waiting for stuff to become available...

Hi Kris,
I sent a note to my local JAXP guru and he said there will be several different standalone JAXP 1.3 implementations available real soon. Unfortunately until they are publicly available I cannot go into more details.
I've also been told that JAXP 1.3 standalone build has been tested and definitely will also work with JDK 1.4.x.
Thanks,
Justyna

Justyna,
Yup, I know it's bundled with 5.0, but I just haven't come across any
information that says JAXP 1.3 is also targeted to work with earlier versions
of Java. I also haven't been able to track down any "free-standing" JAXP 1.3
implementations. Any idea if there are any? Thanks.

Hi Kris,
With J2SE 5.0 the JAXP 1.3 implementation will be a part of your runtime. You won't have to download anything extra in order to use JAXP 1.3 with J2SE 5.0.
With J2SE 1.4.x or earlier you will need to bundle JAXP 1.3 along with your JSTL implementation classes. This is similar to what you had to do if you were running J2SE 1.3.x which didn't have the JAXP 1.2 implementation and wanted to use JSTL 1.1.x.
Thanks,
Justyna

Justyna,
I'm having a hard time tracking down any information on whether a JAXP 1.3
implementation will be available for anything earlier than J2SE 5.0. Any
idea
if there will be (or is) something that will work with J2SE 1.4.2? Thanks.

Hi Flavio,
Before I left for vacation, I created a branch where I created a first revision of JSTL that leverages the JAXP 1.3 APIs. It's not finished yet but the majority of the work is done.
The tag is: standard-111_JAXP13_BRANCH
I believe that the performance problem can be addressed by moving towards the standard JAXP 1.3 implementation.
Thanks,
Justyna
