Hi Michael,

I am glad to know you would volunteer to mentor this project.

Thank you for these entry points. I am studying them and tomorrow I am
gonna be submitting the first version of the proposal.

Sincerely,
Samuel

&gt; Hi Devs,<br>
&gt;<br>
&gt; Due to the fact of haven&#39;t any reply from the other committers and I<br>
&gt; am motivated to work for Xalan, I become interested for the ticket<br>
&gt; Complete support for StAXSource / StAXResult.<br>
&gt; As this ticket reporter, I think Michael Glavassevich will be the<br>

&gt;<br>
&gt; Why am I the correct student for this project ?<br>
&gt; I am very motivated. Furthermore, I am a Java programmer since 2010<br>
&gt; and I have a good experience with it. I am prepared to work in this<br>
&gt; project and I am preparing a formal proposal to submit to the program.<br>

&gt;<br>
&gt; For the proposal, the following technical parts were identified so far:<br>
&gt; Implement StAXSource / StAXResult classes according to the<br>
specifications;<br>
&gt; Implement a good suite of tests for them;<br>
&gt; Integrate the developed code to the Xalan-J project.<br>
&gt;<br>
&gt; The proposal will be organized as described at the ASF GSoC 2013 page:<br>

&gt; A detailed description / design document;<br>
&gt; An approach;<br>

&gt;<br>
&gt; (Speaking just about the Java version of Xalan)<br>
&gt;<br>
&gt; Derivatives of Xalan-J are included in both the Oracle and IBM JDKs. I<br>
&gt; would expect that the majority of users would be getting their JAXP/XSLT<br>
&gt; support in this way. I couldn&#39;t guess how many use the Apache releases<br>
of<br>
&gt; Xalan-J directly, but have to imagine it&#39;s gone down over the years with<br>
&gt; the availability of JAXP/XSLT support in Java SE and processors such as<br>
&gt; Saxon which have supported XSLT 2.0 / XPath 2.0 for a long time.<br>
&gt;<br>
&gt; I know there&#39;s been some interest by users for XSLT 2.0 / XPath 2.0<br>
&gt; support. They occasionally ask about it on the mailing list. Personally<br>
I<br>
&gt; haven&#39;t kept up with the standards, so from a technical perspective I<br>
&gt; wouldn&#39;t be able to provide much guidance for XPath 2.0 / XSLT 2.0. The<br>
&gt; other committers may have more knowledge.<br>

&gt; &gt; Hi Xalan Devs,<br>
&gt; &gt;<br>
&gt; &gt; My name is Samuel Queiroz and I participated of GSoC 2012 by coding<br>
&gt; &gt; for Xalan-C.<br>
&gt; &gt; My mentor was Steven J. Hathaway and we implemented the base<br>
&gt; &gt; functions for XML DateTime.<br>
&gt; &gt;<br>
&gt; &gt; In the context of GSoC 2013, I would like to work again with the<br>
&gt; &gt; Xalan team in order to push this project to have XSLT/XPath 2 support.<br>
&gt; &gt;<br>
&gt; &gt; I would like to discuss some points with you:<br>
&gt; &gt; 1. In order to become more motivated, does Xalan have a big users<br>
&gt; &gt; community? Can you estimate how many projects use it?<br>
&gt; &gt; 2. Which Xalan version is better positioned -- in terms of both code<br>
&gt; &gt; quality/completion and number of affected users -- to incorporate<br>
&gt; &gt; these recommendations?<br>
&gt; &gt; 3. In order to get help defining a project that makes sense within<br>
&gt; &gt; the scope of GSoC, what could be a great starting point in order to<br>
&gt; &gt; push the project to support these recommendations?<br>
&gt; &gt; 4. Who could be the mentor?<br>
&gt; &gt; I am looking forward to hearing from you.<br>
&gt; &gt;<br>
&gt; &gt; Sincerely,<br>
