[ANN] Xalan-J 2.2 build is released (fwd)

[ne...@ca.ibm.com]

Hi all,

FYI, thought I'd forward this announcement from the Xalan-J folks.  This
makes their plan to step up to Xerces2--and away from Xerces1--very clear;
all the more reason for us all to buckle down and get this production
release out the door!

Cheers,
Neil

Subject: [ANN] Xalan-J 2.2 build is released

We've completed a Xalan-J 2.2 final build and posted it to our usual
site.  Please see further notes below.

    Sources tagged 'xalan-j_2_2_0'

Notes:
- This build is primarily for users who want an updated stable Xalan-J
for use in current production environments.  Users who want to wait for
our next planned set of performance enhancements and/or who need to use
Xerces 2.x may want to wait for Xalan-J 2.3 in the next 2-3 weeks.

- This is the last Xalan-J build to use Xerces 1.x.  We will shortly be
checking a Xerces 2.0.x parser jar into our CVS and using that for all
future builds.

- Xalan-J 2.2 will compile and run with Xerces 2.0.0beta4, however
there may be new bugs or changes in behavior since we have not
thoroughly tested that yet.  Future Xalan-J builds in the near future
should still compile and run with Xerces 1.x although they will ship
with Xerces 2.x.

- This is that last Xalan-J build that will include Xalan-J 1.x
compatibility code.  This compatibility code will not work with Xerces
2.x and will be removed from our CVS shortly.
