If there is one, I'm happy to review and apply it. Are we (i.e. new PMC members) able to do that? Just tried to do a commit to see if it would work but got an error message. Have a feeling that none of the new PMC members have write access (yet). commit -m "Fixing JIRA Issue #709: http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/XALANC-709. Changes to a comment to correct a doxygen bug. Patch thanks to Steven Hathaway."
