Hello.
The Xalan-J project has three XPath APIs: the JAXP XPath API,

DOM Level 3 XPath API,[2,3] and the processor-specific Xalan-J XPath
API.[4,5]
The Xalan-J XPath API filled a need, as it existed before any
standard specification for an XPath API was available. Now that
JCP has
defined a standard Java XPath API and the W3C has given a strong
indication of the form of a DOM XPath API (though not a
recommendation),
it might be time to deprecate the Xalan-J XPath API. I'd like to
solicit
any views for or against the idea.
+1 on the deprecation of this API. Thanks.
