Just a thought ... Perhaps we should try to make Apache OO *really*
Apache. I am now seeing so many nice things that other Apache
projects
offer: Santuario, APR, pdfbox, Xerces/Xalan, Maven, etc. Just
something
to consider (after 3.4).
Whatever external components are added: it should be avoided to use
Java
components for code that is loaded on startup or for loading "normal"
documents. If possible, Java should be used only for optional
components/features.
Except for pdfbox, all the Apache conponents I mentioned are available
in C/C++ versions.
