Hi Devs,
Due to the fact of haven't any reply from the other committers and I am
motivated to work for Xalan, I become interested for the ticket Complete
support for StAXSource /
StAXResult<https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/XALANJ-2550>
.
As this ticket reporter, I think Michael Glavassevich will be the mentor
for this project, can you confirm this?
--
Why am I the correct student for this project ?
I am very motivated. Furthermore, I am a Java programmer since 2010 and I
have a good experience with it. I am prepared to work in this project and I
am preparing a formal proposal to submit to the program.
--
For the proposal, the following technical parts were identified so far:
- Implement StAXSource / StAXResult classes according to the
specifications;
- Implement a good suite of tests for them;
- Integrate the developed code to the Xalan-J project.
The proposal will be organized as described at the ASF GSoC 2013
page<http://www.google-melange.com/gsoc/org/google/gsoc2013/apache>
:
- List of deliverables and quantifiable results;
- A detailed description / design document;
- An approach;
- A schedule;
- My background.
If you have more details about this project, please let me know.
I am looking forward to hearing from you.
Sincerely,
Samue Queiroz

<br>
Derivatives of Xalan-J are included in both the Oracle and IBM JDKs. I<br>
would expect that the majority of users would be getting their JAXP/XSLT<br>
support in this way. I couldn't guess how many use the Apache releases of<br>

the availability of JAXP/XSLT support in Java SE and processors such as<br>

<br>
I know there's been some interest by users for XSLT 2.0 / XPath 2.0<br>
support. They occasionally ask about it on the mailing list. Personally I<br>
haven't kept up with the standards, so from a technical perspective I<br>
wouldn't be able to provide much guidance for XPath 2.0 / XSLT 2.0. The<br>
