Nothing in particular to report. There was no development activity over the reporting period.
XML Commons
XML Commons has migrated its issue tracking from Bugzilla to JIRA and the mailing lists have been moved to the @xerces.apache.org domain. That still leaves the website, download area and SVN location under xml.apache.org. Those will be moving over to xerces.apache.org too in the coming months.
No development activity to report, though we got a reply from the W3C on the JIRA issue (https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/XMLCOMMONS-61) about their continuing challenges with excessive DTD traffic. It seems that we've already done what we reasonably can on that front by bundling the XML Commons Resolver with Xerces-J and that further improvements to caching should be done at the protocol level.
