xalan-j build under Fedora under WSL didn't report errors...
... not surprising, but a good start.
Now I need to get the tests set up so everything's found in the right paths.

... I probably was checking out from the wrong server, come to think of
it. Redoing.

Hi Joseph,
Within my previous mail, there were minor typos. I meant, following please,
You'd need *to* do git clone of this mentioned branch, with command
git clone --single-branch
https://gitbox.apache.org/repos/asf/xalan-java.git -b
xalan-j_2_7_1_maint (as mentioned within the readme file as well,
cited above).
For the XalanJ tests repos, we're using the branch 'master' (which can
*be* cloned with the command, git clone
https://gitbox.apache.org/repos/asf/xalan-test.git as mentioned within
readme file as well).

There's the following XalanJ readme file located at
https://gitbox.apache.org/repos/asf?p=xalan-java.git;a=blob_plain;f=README;hb=refs/heads/xalan-j_2_7_1_maint,
that we've written, which describes the process of building and
testing XalanJ for the (2.7.3) release. This readme file, has few
instructions mentioned for windows platform, but those can easily be
understood for Linux as well.
For the XalanJ implementation repos (xalan-java), we're using the
branch xalan-j_2_7_1_maint (and not 'master').
You'd need do git clone of this mentioned branch, with command git
clone --single-branch
https://gitbox.apache.org/repos/asf/xalan-java.git -b
xalan-j_2_7_1_maint (as mentioned within the readme file as well,
cited above).
For the XalanJ tests repos, we're using the branch 'master' (which can
cloned with the command, git clone
https://gitbox.apache.org/repos/asf/xalan-test.git as mentioned within
readme file as well).

No, there's no reason to continue Java 1.3 support. But that's the version currently called for by the build, and I want to test as you have presumably built it.

Hi Joseph,
Within your previous mail, you wrote following,
"Yep, OpenJDK Java 8 works; it supports the 1.3 source and target versions".
Are you planning to suggest that, we should have Java version 1.3
compatibility for XalanJ 2.7.3? If that is true, then we won't be able
to use latest XercesJ release (2.12.2, which was built with Java 1.7).
I believe that, to be able to use XercesJ 2.12.2 with XalanJ 2.7.3,
XalanJ 2.7.3 needs to use Java 1.7 (ideally), but we might use Java
1.8 with XalanJ 2.7.3 as well.
I think, Gary suggested earlier, to use Java 1.8 with XalanJ 2.7.3,
and I as well agree to that.
Please note that, Java 1.7 is synonym for Java 7, and Java 1.8 is
synonym for Java 8.
Any thoughts, please.
