[jira] [Created] (XALANC-808) Remove XalanMsgLib

Roger Leigh created XALANC-808:
----------------------------------

             Summary: Remove XalanMsgLib
                 Key: XALANC-808
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/XALANC-808
             Project: XalanC
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: XalanC
    Affects Versions: 1.13
            Reporter: Roger Leigh
            Assignee: Gary D. Gregory
             Fix For: 1.13


XalanMsgLib adds quite a bit of complexity to the build and to the implementation.  It's also completely unused: there is only a single supported language: en_US.  There hasn't been another language added in the entire history of the project.  The demand for and likelihood of getting any translations is near zero.

As a result, this issue is a proposal for dropping the XalanMsgLib library.  If it's unused, why pay the costs for having it?

Unless there are any objections, I would suggest we drop it entirely for 1.13.
