Hi Dmitri... glad to see you got your apache.org mail
back working again (saw it on infra@).  ;)  If you're
in the "neighborhood" for the moment, I'd like to
gauge your opinion RE
https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/JXPATH-61 .  The
final consensus seems to have been that the entire
thing should be forgotten, as Elliotte Rusty H so
vehemently pushed for, but your final changes were
never reverted.  Based on my very limited
understanding of the issue my personal inclination
would have been to take ERH at his word, given the
rather large collection of XML-related books he has to
his name (I'll acknowledge that's perhaps a lazy
attitude, but I have lots of other projects to look at
too).  Since it has been awhile, I'd like your current
thoughts on whether this change should indeed appear
in the 1.3 release.  :)

Thanks,
Matt
