I'd recommend sticking with the Apache versions. [Just upgrade to the latest for your target JVM.] AIUI, although some of the XML code in the Java libraries was derived from Apache, this was done a long while ago, and has not been updated in step. If you do decide to drop the dependencies, make sure you test with as many different Java versions as possible. > Emmanuel Bourg > > > --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: dev-unsubscr...@commons.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: dev-h...@commons.apache.org
