Jochen Wiedmann closed XMLRPC-60:
---------------------------------

    Resolution: Won't Fix

First of all, let me say, that I am not so keen with MinML either and share your opinion, that a modern XML parser and
preferrably the JRE's parser should be default.

However, as already pointed out, this can easily be achieved and you are by no means forced to use MinML. Besides, take a look at

http://cvs.apache.org/viewcvs.cgi/ws-xmlrpc/?only_with_tag=b20050512_streaming

and you'll note, that the use of SAX2 is already implemented in a branch.

> MinML is not an XML parser, It does not correctly implement the XML specification in a variety of ways. It should not be bundled and should not be used. Given that Java 1.4 now includes a much more conformant parser (and Java 1.5 includes an even better one) there's no excuse for distributing a non-conformant parser like MinML. XML-RPC is XML, and nothing less than a real XML parser can handle it correctly.
