+											**Xalan Java XSLT 3.0 JEP (JDK Enhancement Proposal)**
+
+**Summary:** To integrate Apache Xalan Java XSLT 3.0 and XPath 3.1 implementations within OpenJDK
+
+**Goals/Non-Goals:** To integrate Xalan Java XSLT 3.0 and XPath 3.1 interpretive implementations within a future 
+                     release of OpenJDK. Integrating any future Xalan Java implementation of XQuery specification
+				     is out-of-scope for this JEP.
+
+**Motivation:** OpenJDK already has Xalan Java 2.7.3 integrated within latest OpenJDK platform. Xalan Java 2.7.3
+                is compliant with XSLT 1.0 and XPath 1.0 specifications, but not with latest versions of
+                these XSL specifications like XSLT 2.0/3.0 and XPath 2.0/3.0/3.1. XSLT 3.0 and XPath 3.1 languages
+                are grately useful as compared to XSLT 1.0 and XPath 1.0. OpenJDK Xalan Java users can write complex
+                XSL stylesheet logic using XSLT 3.0 and XPath 3.1 languages, as compared to XSLT 1.0 and XPath 1.0.
+
+**Description:**
+            **1) Technical specification**
+
+               XSLT 3.0 specification : https://www.w3.org/TR/xslt-30			                            										
+			   
+			   XPath 3.1 specification : https://www.w3.org/TR/xpath-31/                      
+
+               XPath 3.1 F&O specification : https://www.w3.org/TR/xpath-functions-31/
+
+               Xalan Java XSLT 3.0 implementation, complies with W3C recommendations whose URLs are
+               specified within this JEP document section.
+
+
+           **2) Implementation plan**
+		   
+		      Xalan Java currently has a robust XSLT 3.0 implementation as an alpha release, available
+              to integrate from https://dlcdn.apache.org/xalan/xalan-j/. Future efforts may likely further
+ 			  improve Xalan Java XSLT 3.0 implementation.
+		   
+**Others:**
+           **1) Alternatives**
+		   
+		      Other useful XSL implementations are Saxon (provided by Saxonica) and Altova
+		   
+		   **2) Testing**
+		   
+		      Xalan Java XSLT 3.0 implementation complies with a large collection of XSL test cases,
+			  available within Xalan Java release packages available from https://dlcdn.apache.org/xalan/xalan-j/.also
+
+              Xalan Java XSLT 3.0 implementation also complies with large subset of W3C XSLT 3.0 test suite (available from
+			  https://github.com/w3c/xslt30-test/), with a compliance level little above 70%.
+		   
+		   **3) Risks and Assumptions**
+		   
+		      N/a
+		   
+		   **4) Dependencies**
+		   
+		      Apache Xerces-Java (Ref, http://xerces.apache.org/xerces2-j/)
+			  
+			  Apache Bean Scripting framework (Ref, https://commons.apache.org/bsf/) 
+			  
+			  Mozilla Rhino JavaScript engine (Ref, https://github.com/mozilla/rhino)
+			  
+			  Apache Commons Logging library (Ref, https://commons.apache.org/logging/)
