The timeline is based on whenever Ant's next release is. Steve
Loughran said that if the Ant release manager deems it ok to include
Xerces-2.9.0 without having 2.9.0 in the maven repository, then the
time frame isn't overly important, as long as there are solid plans
to get it out there at some point in the near future. However,
they'd really prefer it to be there. I'm not 100% sure of their
release schedule, but it's been hinted that it could be very soon
(next week or two). Sorry to be opaque. I'm not part of the Ant
team, so I don't know for sure. ASAPWR (as soon as possible within
reason) is my view.
