[ANN] Xalan 0.19.2 distribution now available at xml.apache.org/dist

[Sh...@lotus.com]

We've posted an updated Xalan 0.19.2 which works with Xerces-J 1.0.1 in the
normal distribution area.  See:
    http://xml.apache.org/dist/xalan_0_19_2.jar
    http://xml.apache.org/dist/xalan_0_19_2.jar.sig

This release includes more bugfixes and has a number of updates to sync us
up to the Xerces-J 1.0.1 release.  Hopefully future releases will come out
a bit quicker (presuming Xerces does as well).

Build notes:
-- See the normal BUGS, DONE, STATUS and README in the root for more notes.

-- Distributed as a .jar file: you can either 'jar xf' it or use most
common unzip tools to expand it.

-- Compiled on WinNT Server 4.0 SP5 with Sun's JDK 1.2.2; all using
Makefile (not Ant, yet, but we hope next time).

-- Sources are tagged 'xalan_0_19_2'.

-- Xerces compatibility: this distribution works with the Xerces-J 1.0.1
distribution.  It probably doesn't compile against the Xerces daily CVS
repository, as several people have noted on the x*-dev lists.  Yes, we're
working on getting it updated.  No, I don't know when that will be done -
may not be until Xerces' next release.  Sorry!

a wish for clearer error message

[Philippe Vijghen <Ph...@forem.be>]

the error messages displayed when you do a

	<xsl:call-template name="xxxxxx">

...and no templated named "xxxxxx" is available
is rather cryptographic (see below).

I wish for a clearer message in that case.
