Congrats Xerces team, I have been using Xerces from a very long time. I has using it since 2.0.15 (XML4J). It has been so far one of the stablest software that I have seen. It is great to see how quickly you people have been making releases. Could you share your development practices for making these accomplishments apart from the standard XP practices of reviews, daily builds, etc., I have been meandering around the DTD parsing API, Schema parsing API and XML parsing API's from quite a long time. I have found andy's code in Neko quite useful in using the DTDConfiguration. A sample of DTDConfiguration with XNI DTD handler API's could have been added in samples so that people need not get to list regularly for DTD parsing possibilities with xerces. Wishing you people a lot of good wishes from us, the user community. Thank you xerces team, especially joseph, neil, gopal and elena for you timely responses, also to my colleagues in the developer community for taking their time in sharing their knowledge. <Suresh/>
