   Yes, Saxon is used only by the Daffodil Schematron validator.  Schematron validation requires XSLT stylesheet processing and Xerces is an XML processor only, not an XSLT processor, so @jw3 had to pick either Saxon or Apache Xalan and Xalan has had only one new [release](https://xalan.apache.org/) since 2011.  The Apache Commons XML resolver has had no new [release](https://xerces.apache.org/xml-commons/components/resolver/resolver-release-notes.html) since 2006 itself, while the XML Resolver project has had 46 [releases](https://github.com/xmlresolver/xmlresolver/releases) since 2015 and comes with all the standard DTDs, schemas etc. [packaged](https://github.com/xmlresolver/xmlresolverdata) in a data jar.  Just saying :-).
