- Xerces-J was forutnate to be awarded one Google Summer of Code project for 2008. Starting this month Hiranya Jayathilaka (the new student) will be working on [http://www.w3.org/TR/2007/WD-xmlschema11-1-20070830/#cTypeAlternative type alternatives] for the XML Schema 1.1 implementation which has been under development on a branch in SVN.

  We received several patches in April for improving memory management in the DOM implementation. These should help orphaned DOM objects to get garbage collected sooner. Just waiting for the contributor to get their CLA faxed in before committing them.

- Due to potentially frequent changes that may be required to support various scripting languages it was decided on the c-dev mailing list to split the swig directory into two seperate distributions: Xerces-SWIG (SWIG interface definitions) and Xerces-P (Perl-specific part).

- The work is underway to align the DOM XPath interfaces defined by Xerces-C++ with the implementation of XPath 2 provided by the XQilla project. This should allow out-of-the box integration (currenly requires patching of Xerces-C++ 2.8.0) as well as cleaner user code (no casts) once Xerces-C++ 3.0.0 is released.

  The first beta for the upcoming 3.0.0 release helped identify a number of problems which were addressed. A number of bugs have been fixed since the beta release. The plan is to release another beta in the 1-2 months timeframe once the XQilla-related work is completed as well as the remaining important bugs are fixed.
