Hi Nathan, I appreciate your initiative. In a discussion with Michael Glavassevich in a separate thread [1] I became aware of you doing this for XML commons and Xerces. However, will you do it for this release only or do you plan on doing it for a while? Either way, I think it would be helpful for the Xerces-J developers if you could also create a step-by-step guide.
Kind regards, Jimisola [1] http://www.nabble.com/-ANNOUNCEMENT-:-Xerces-J-2.8.1-now-available-tf2272496.html#a6354581 Nathan Beyer wrote: > > If the Maven bit is just about publishing the new end states, that is > pretty > trivial [1].
