Hi all,

I raised the following issue a week ago, with a candidate patch.
<http://nagoya.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=14578>.

Is there anyone interested in giving me some feedback on this?

I am currently using Xalan in a production environment, and am getting
intermittent hangs on startup. I have not raised a bug for this issue
because as the problem is intermittent it is very difficult to get info
on it, or to generate a testcase demonstrating the problem. However, due
to some strategically-placed logging, I do know that the hang
occurs inside method XPathAPI.eval. It also appears to be caused by some
kind of thread race condition (my application has multiple threads
performing xml-related operations simultaneously on completely separate
xml DOMs).

Because this is a real issue to me, I am therefore planning to do an
"audit" of all Xalan code which uses "static" member variables. Bug
http://nagoya.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=14578 was the first
issue I found.

However, before spending too much time on this, I would like to know
that someone on the dev list is willing to assess any bugs I raise for
this, and review/apply patches.

So, if I look for the bugs, and provide patches, does anyone here have
the time to review/apply them?

Regards,

Simon Kitching <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
