Re: Donation of JAXP 1.3 Sources to Apache

Hello Neeraj,

I think this is a good plan for merging the JAXP 1.3 changes into Xerces. 
There's been quite a bit of progress on the XInclude implementation in 
CVS, particularly in the last two months, so I imagine it's quite 
different than it's state in the RI. Initially putting the RI on a 
separate branch and then merging onto the main trunk sounds like the right 
way to move forward.

Thanks.
