[C2][Xalan2] Need to use XPath independent of Xalan.

[Davanum Srinivas <di...@yahoo.com>]

Scott,

A few C2 components use org.apache.xpath.XPathAPI package. Is there a plan to add a new target in
build.xml to build an independent jar file (say "xpath.jar")?. (We need this to be able to use C2
with SAXON)

Thanks,
dims

Not having alot of experience with developing XPath API stuff, but
recognizing that need, I have been tossing around the idea of creating
a SAX 2 based XPath projet called "saXPath".  It would start humbly with
the simple element/attribute grabbing, and then include more and more
pieces of the API.  If there is sufficient interest, I can open up a
project in SourceForge with a compatible license, and work can begin
right away....
