Hi David, Gareth and all,

One of the things I'm hoping to do in the next week or so is to share a
list of the work items that the folks from IBM are planning to focus on in
the next while, including when we thought it might be nice to have a
release.  This way, I'm hoping other folks (committers and not) can step
forward, volunteer for things, and we can put together a decent plan.  That
way, we'll all have a much firmer idea of what the next release will entail
and when it will come out.

For the question at hand:  It turns out that it might actually be useful to
have a 2.3 release come out reasonably soon (early-mid May) because some
fairly important features should be in by then (most importantly, a scheme
to enable users to have the parser get memory from their own heap rather
than from the system).  Since this should make us substantially more robust
in environments which have this capability, it might be good to have a
stable release for people to use sooner rather than later.

Anyway, that's a preview of some of the things we're looking into over
here; more details (and lots of opportunity for discussion!) to follow
soonish.

Cheers!
Neil

Anyone know a more solid date than "Fall 2003" for the next release of
Xerces?  It would be version 2.3.0
I'm planning on updating our code base from 1.7.0, but if 2.3.0 is coming
in
a few weeks I'll wait for that instead of going to 2.2.0.

Thanks
