Hi All: What the lists and PMC's thoughts on forming a plan to get Xalan-J releases flowing again?
Some of the steps below are baby steps, others are huge, they could be one release per step or grouped in different releases. Each step is a "Version x.y.z" in the list below. Version x.y.z: What is in trunk now. See svn diff https://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/xalan/java/trunk https://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/xalan/java/tags/xalan-j_2_7_1 That would need careful analysis for compatibility and document changes. There ~ 35K of changes in the following classes: - src/org/apache/xml/dtm/ref/ DTMNodeProxy.java - src/org/apache/xalan/res/XSLTErrorResources_de.java - src/org/apache/xalan/xsltc/dom/ArrayNodeListIterator.java - src/org/apache/xalan/xsltc/runtime/InternalRuntimeError.java - src/org/apache/xalan/xsltc/runtime/BasisLibrary.java - src/org/apache/xalan/xsltc/compiler/QName.java - src/org/apache/xalan/xsltc/compiler/SymbolTable.java - src/org/apache/xalan/xsltc/compiler/xpath.cup - src/org/apache/xalan/xsltc/compiler/LiteralElement.java - src/org/apache/xalan/xsltc/compiler/Stylesheet.java - src/org/apache/xalan/xsltc/compiler/Parser.java - src/org/apache/xalan/xsltc/compiler/CallTemplate.java Version x.y.z: Update libraries, for example, to Xerces 2.11.0 from 2.9.0. Use the current version of BCEL as well. Version x.y.z: Target Java 5. Compile to target JRE, possible source changes. Version x.y.z: Target Java 6. Compile to target JRE, possible source changes. Version x.y.z: Target Java 7. Compile to target JRE, possible source changes. Version x.y.z: GSoC mess. Version x.y.z: XPath 2. Version x.y.z: XSLT 2. I am curious as to the lists and PMC's thoughts are on this.
