I'm not on Log4J-User anymore, but I get a peek to what happens being the
moderator... Sun's JAXP 1.0 (which contains the classes you're talking
about) is _NOT_ "early access". Only 1.1 is, but it should be out quite
soon.
Anyway, also Xerces-J implements those classes (I wrote them before joining
Sun), so, you might want to check that out...
