     I checked out copies of xml-xalan/java/trunk and 
xml-xalan/test/trunk, compared them with the source in CVS, ran smoketest 
and smoketest.xsltc.  Everything looked good.  I didn't experiment with 
any branches, though.

     I want to alert everyone to the problem with using date revisions in 
Subversion for code that's migrated from CVS.[1]  If you're used to using 
dates in CVS to track down when and why a problem was injected into the 
source, you'll find that a little more difficult with Subversion - at 
least for the migrated revisions.  Once we switch over to Subversion 
completely, all new revisions will be recorded in chronological order and 
won't exhibit the same problem.

Thanks,

Henry
