[VOTE] Bundle SAX+DOM+JAXP into commons.jar

Everyone,

Am +1 for Costin's Proposal on combining dom, sax, jaxp into a pack. 

Can we come up with a better name instead of commons.jar? A person (who does not know the
background) should get an idea of what the jar contains by the name of the jar :)

Thanks,
dims

+1 from me. What about "dom-sax-jaxp.jar"?

The separation could be just a build issue where the default is
to generate the one jar file.

That would be fine with me also.  The downside would be that users would
have to put ~3 more jar files on their classpath.  Or someone would have
to come up with a new jar packaging scheme for the various options of
using xerces, crimson, xalan, etc.

Considering all of the furor over people *not* wanting DOM in
Xerces to be used for the Schema support, I would have thought
that we would propose to separate the APIs into different Jars
like "sax.jar", "dom.jar", etc.

I'm fine with bundling the common APIs together but I prefer 
"xml-api.jar" and not "xavier.jar" or "saxdomjaxp.jar". So, if
we go down the bundling path, here's my votes:

  +1  xml-api.jar (plural is ok, but I like this better)
  +0  saxdomjaxp.jar
  -1  xavier.jar

How about xml-api.jar (non-plural) instead?

It's shorter, describes what is contained inside the jar file, and
allows future cross-parser API additions without having to change the
name of the jar file itself.

What about common-api.jar or xml-apis.jar ?
