Dear Apache XalanC++ committers !
Since the latest XalanC 1.9 release we have implemented some important features and fixed many defects.
I'd suggest to schedule the release of XalanC, Version 1.10 on Oct.7/2005. To facilitate the building and
testing of the release I propose a code freeze date of Sept. 19/2005
The main new features in the release will be:
- Support for XML 1.1 and Namespaces in XML 1.1.
- Added support for IBM XLC 7.0 compiler on Linux.
- Improved and stabilized C pluggable memory management functionality.
- Various improvements in Xalan XML serializers for better performance and stability.
- Upgrade from XercesC 2.6 to XercesC 2.7
- Various performance and functionality bug fixes.
I suggest that we release the same platform/compiler set of binaries for XalanC 1.10 as the recent XercesC 2.7 release:
32 bit packages:
- Windows 2000 compiled with MSVC 6.0 SP3
- Redhat Linux AS4 compiled with gcc 3.4
- AIX 5.1 compiled with xlC_r 6.0.0
- Solaris 2.8 compiled with Forte C++ Version 6 Update 2
- HP-UX 11i compiled with aCC A.03.52 with pthreads
64 bit packages:
- SuSE Linux 8.0 compiled with gcc 3.2 (AMD)
- AIX 5.1 compiled with xlC_r 6.0.0
- Solaris 2.8 compiled with Forte C++ Version 6 Update 2
- HP-UX 11i compiled with aCC A.03.52 with pthreads
Dear committers, if the date and the content of the release seems to be sufficient, please vote for the release!
Here is my +1
