I lurk on this list as a member of the Jena RDF developers platform team.
We reship Xerces, which we use as the XML parser for RDF/XML and for handling XML Schema datatypes. We have just released Jena 2.1 which included Xerces 2.6.1 ... (The immediatly prior release included a patched version of Xerces 2.6.0; these patches got into 2.6.1 and we wanted to get back onside)
I am having difficulty assessing the significance of your proposal to do a further point release so quickly: are the defects with Xerces 2.6.1 really that serious? should we (the Jena team) effectively do a recall on Jena 2.1 and release a Jena 2.1.1 with Xerces 2.6.2? (A fairly small minority of Jena users will be using the Xerces APIs directly).

Hi all,
I want to let everyone know that we're planning a point release of Xerces early next week.
Fairly soon after the 2.6.1 release it was discovered that some of the method signatures in the XML Schema API [1] do not match the signatures in the implementation.
