If you don't have a lower profile (like Foundation) VM installed, then you will not be effected because 1.4/1.5/1.6 VMs are considered to be compatible and your bundles will still resolve and function correctly.

Re: [equinox-dev] Building against specific EEs
eRCP XML bundles, also known as "microXML" are in the Eclipse embedded Rich Client Platform project (www.eclipse.org/ercp). The two bundles provide full DOM Level 2, SAX 2.0 and JAXP 1.0 support in about 100k. Part of the reason for the small size is that the parser is non-validating. You can check out the two projects from CVS or get pre-built bundles from an eRCP runtime.

[equinox-dev] Building against specific EEs
As mentioned in the Equinox call earlier this week, I am investigating the EE situation with our bundles and how it relates to the build. Kim and I discussed this today and we will move forward by: - Kim ensuring that VMs for the appropriate profiles are available in the build (in the process of aquiring Foundation 1.1) - downloading the eRCP XML bundles and put them in a spot so PDE/Build knows to take them into account when compiling - running a test build with one of our "requires XML" bundles changed to have the correct order for the EE If everything is ok, then we will recommend that the order of EEs in the bundle manifests be changed to reflect the true order. Note that this will require people to have the XML APIs available in their workspace if they are set up with exact match VMs. We will adjust the project set files to load Xerces or the bundles from eRCP, accordingly.
