Hi Edwin,

Thanks for fixing the xml-commons code to eliminate the crimson reference.
I agree that, eventually, we'll want to take the source from the
xml-commons module.  This is probably a midterm goal for Xerces2, I'd
imagine.  I suspect it would be too much of a change for the Xerces1
codebase at this stage though.

Are you planning to copy the code over to Xerces1?  I'm still not entirely
sure that large a change is the best thing, but if you're confident enough
that it'll fix many more bugs than it might introduce then I suppose
there's no reason not to do it.

Cheers,
Neil

Another option would be to just manually copy the javax.xml.parser code
from xml-commons, which is what Shane Curcuru did recently for Xalan
(but different package probably??).

What I was planning to do was to provide an automatic way of syncing the
code.  I was planning to prototype something and provide a patch to see
what you all thought.  One difference is that it will require two CVS
trees to be present for a build.  I suppose ant has a CVS checkout task,
but I wasn't planning on using that.
