Andreas, Historically I don't think Xalan developers have had much or anything to do with the repository. They're not Maven users. It's possible that whatever you're looking at was put there by someone else (e.g. a developer from another Apache project, perhaps Maven itself) without the knowledge of any of the developers here.
