Re: Xerces 2.12 release date

If we look at, http://xerces.apache.org/xerces2-j/faq-build.html#faq-2. It
says

To build Xerces-J you need the Java Development Kit (JDK) version 1.3 (or
higher) installed on your machine.

I think, this FAQ should clarify that to use Xerces-J's XML Schema 1.1
support, we need to use JDK 1.4 as minimum, both for compilation and
running Xerces-J.

Unless we start using "newer" APIs and language features there's nothing 
in Xerces that requires more than Java 1.3 (or 1.4 for XML Schema 1.1).

Re: Xerces 2.12 release date

Posted by Mukul Gandhi <mu...@apache.org>.
Hi Gary & Michael,
   In case, Gary will lead this work, that will be great. I can assist Gary
in few tasks as Gary would suggest.

I think, following would summarize our release strategy:
Xerces-J 2.12.0 would comprise of two Xerces-J releases (similar to the
2.11.0 release). One release will be from the trunk. It'll comprise of
enhancements to various API implementations within Xerces, and its XML
Schema component will be at 1.0 level. This release would run on JDK 1.3
min.

Another release will be from this branch:
https://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/xerces/java/branches/xml-schema-1.1-dev/.
Conceptually structure of this will mirror that of the release from trunk.
This will provide support for XML Schema 1.1 apart from XML Schema 1.0.
This release would run on JDK 1.4 min. We have to raise the min JDK level
for this release, due to the need from its XML Schema 1.1 processor. I
think, our XML Schema 1.1 processor in 2.12.0 release should not be in beta
(as in 2.11.0 release), and will be a production grade version of XML
Schema 1.1.

Certainly, I'd be happy to help. Xalan was hard because there was no one
around with any knowledge to help.

(I am the PMC chair for Apache Commons, and on the PMC for Xalan, Logging,
and HttpComponents, so I've done many releases and I know they can be a
pain.)

Could make that much easier to do if you were a committer (if that's

Hi Gary,
    How about you taking the challenge to release Xerces-J 2.12.0? Or will
this be much of work for you?

I remember you successfully made a release of Xalan-J.
