Hey everyone! When David posted about the 1.5 version freeze, he mentioned the need for more documentation (and updated documentation). I volunteered as a good way to get involved with Xalan development.
Although David said that he and Berin will be finishing the doc updates for this release, he did point out that there are plenty of other doc stuff that could be done: a user's guide, updating/expanding the FAQ, adding stuff to the usage, etc. But he also suggested that I ask the mailing lists for what people think is lacking in the documentation or could use improvement. I was thinking about starting with the FAQ by expanding it (to start) with common questions asked about programming Xalan, since the list tends to get a lot of programming questions (by going through the list archives). I know I ended up asking a few questions when I first started using Xalan. :) But what other documentation would people like to see? I can also be privately emailed at [EMAIL PROTECTED] (home address) with suggestions, but I do try to read most of the posts on the mailing lists. Rachael
