Xalan-J 2.2 is scheduled to be released next week. Apparently there is an impending Ant 1.5 release coming up too. Ideally, these could be coordinated since I believe Ant is bundling xalan.jar.
Shane Curcuru of IBM is taking a look an a problem that occurs when using Ant and Xalan to produce the W3C/NIST DOM Test Suite. Hopefully, he can get to the bottom of the problem in the next day or two in time for inclusion of the fix either Xalan or Ant (depending on where the issue is).
