[ANN] Apache Cocoon 2.1.3 Released

Apache Cocoon 2.1.3 Released
----------------------------

The Apache Cocoon Community is proud to announce the new release
of Apache Cocoon. This new release is a major maintenance release
focusing on minor improvements and bug fixes.

Apache Cocoon is a web development framework built around the concept
of separation of concerns (that is: allowing people to do their job
without having to step on each other toes) and component-oriented web 
RAD.

Cocoon implements these concepts around the notion of 'component
pipelines' modelled after the 'process chain' concept where each 
worker specializes on a particular operation. This makes it possible
to use a Lego(tm)-like approach in building web solutions where
these components can be hooked together into pipelines without
requiring further programming.

We like to think at Cocoon as "web glue" for your web application
development needs. But most important, a glue that can keep 
concerns separate and allow parallel evolution of the two sides, 
improving development pace and reducing the chance of conflicts.

[ANNOUNCEMENT]: Xerces-J 2.6.0 now available

Hi all, 

The Xerces-J team is very happy to announce that version 2.6.0 of
Xerces-J is now available.  

This release provides an experimental implementation of the Document
Object Model Level 3 Core and Load/Save Candidate Recommendations (see
beta-dom3-Xerces-J-bin.2.6.0.zip) and also brings Xerces-J into
compliance with the XML
1.1 Proposed Recommendation (except that it does not yet provide an
option to enable normalization checking as described in section 2.13 of
this specification) and Namespaces in XML 1.1 Proposed Recommendation.

Specifically, the significant changes introduced in this release are:

* Improved the scanning of attribute lists, both small and large.
[Michael Glavassevich] 

* Reimplemented XML11Configuration (the default configuration),
improving performance during reset; accomplished primarily by adding an
internal feature which allows components to query whether or not they
need to read features and properties from the configuration. [Elena
Litani] 

* Modified XML Schema interfaces (org.apache.xerces.xs) and updated the
implementation accordingly. Methods were added to expose actual values
and their types and new interfaces were added for loading XSModels. In
addition, fixed various bugs in the implementation and PSVIWriter
sample. [Sandy Gao, Pete Lloyd, Elena Litani]
