+. 8

Xalan-J's next release should be Maven-based. But we wanted to put out one Java 
8-compatible-but-deprecated build before moving to Java 17.

Of course as part of that we could say Maven3 is compatible but deprecated. I 
haven't yet tested with Maven 4, though, and given my limited Maven skill if 
something odd turns up I may need to get help resolving that.

We can try a spin of that as a sanity check...

Also good idea to remind folks to stay focused in a vote thread.
