Thanks Dave. I have read a little about the test suite for xalanc. If I build with the latest from svn can I run it against the test suite to test stability?

The current SVN is more stable and bug-free than the 1.10 release. Also, I'll be checking in project files for VS2008, along with 64-bit build configurations, and some tweaks to allow building 64-bit Windows binaries. > > 1) When is the latest SVN going to be promoted to release?

Your best bet is to look at the Jira issues closed since the last release, as all commits (except minor tweaks) will have a corresponding issue. Dave
