What about full compatibility with jaxp 1.1 [was: Re: gnujaxp update to 1.2]

Well, sorry for that but trax is part of the 1.1 specification, so if we
want to  be compatible with jaxp1.1, we  nedd to have an  xslt engine in
jaxp. Do we  merge libxmlj? do we  ask for a donation: saxon,  xt? Do we
write one?
