Hi David,

Thanks for your reply - as you can see with my delay now, you're not
the only who's too busy to keep up with things ;-)

Ok - if no one steps up the logical thing is to move Xalan to the
attic, as without 3 active PMC members it's impossible to make
releases or have valid votes. Thank you very much for trying to stay
on board, but that cannot work with just you, and it's not fair to put
all the burden on you.

Unless others step up before say one week before the next board
meeting which is on June 15th, I guess the board will vote to move
Xalan to attic.apache.org. Please let us know if you have other
suggestions.

I checked the archives on people.apache.org and messages from the
board were not there - but you were in CC on most of them, that's
maybe why you got them.

Yes it's the same mechanism.

Ok - as I said from the board's point of view we need 3 active PMC
members for the project to stay active, let us know if you see any
possibility of reaching that "quorum" in the near future.
