Xalan-J ======= >From a code point of view the Xalan-J 2.7.1 release has been tested and is ready. The Apache 2.0 licenses are in the code now. The 2.7.1 release, besides the usual bug fixes will also have upgrades to: - Xerces-J 2.9.0 - xml-commons-external-1.3.04 However from a packaging point of view we are not quite ready. The new requirements on LICENSE and NOTICE files are being worked on. There will be one of each, but in the past there was quite a number of each (e.g. one for Xalan, one for the included Xerces, one for BCEL ...). This also impacts various targets in the build.xml file since these targets build the distribution files with the NOTICE/LICENCE in them. All in all the 2.7.1 release just needs a little testing of the packaging and the approval of the PMC and it will be out.
