Hi Steven,

I don't expect anything from last year's attempt would make it into Xalan.
None of the code from that project was ever contributed back to Apache.
Given your analysis it doesn't sound like there's much of value in that
repository anyway.

It's a shame, but I think we've all learned some valuable lessons from that
experience.

Thanks.
