Hi! Over the last month, I've worked a lot with Xalan-J, and while I was happy with most of its functionality, I also encountered a few problems, for which I wrote bug reports and often even patches:
https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/XALANJ-2493 (nodeList2Iterator) https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/XALANJ-2473 (getTextContent) https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/XALANJ-2490 (xalan:script) https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/XALANJ-2495 (German errors) None of my bug reports have received any comments yet. Furthermore, except for jira bug mails, there seems to be almost no traffic on this mailing list here these past few months, and there have been only three commits to the svn repository in all 2008. So I wonder about the current development status of Xalan-J. With over 550 open issues in jira, there would be enough to do. Are the devs on vacation, working on their local copies without committing or commenting on bugs, working on the version integrated in openjdk (though I see little to no activity there either), or are there simply too few devs working on Xalan-J, with too little time to spare? If so, I have some interest in contributing my work in a more direct way than through those patches which seem to receive no attention at all. I don't have too much time to spare myself, but if I could get away without regularly reading this dev list, without having to fix any issues I haven't caused myself, and without any minimum activity, and of course if you also like the style of my patches well enough, then you might outline the policy and steps for becoming a dev team member. Greetings, Martin von Gagern
