March 2016 Report

Xerces-J

There has been no development activity on Xerces-J since early December 2015. We still need volunteers to help push out a new release.

Mailing list traffic has been very low; only 8 posts on the j-dev and j-users lists since the beginning of December 2015. It appears the community has shifted over time to using stackoverflow.com for asking questions related to Xerces instead of using the Apache mailing lists.

No new releases this quarter. The latest release is Xerces-J 2.11.0 (November 30th, 2010).

Xerces-C

Xerces-C 3.1.3 was released on February 17th to address a security vulnerability. It also contains other fixes that were made last year.

Mailing list traffic has been low; roughly 70+ posts on the c-dev and c-users lists since the beginning of December 2015.

The latest release is Xerces-C 3.1.3 (February 17th, 2016).

No new PMC members in the last four months. The last two additions to the PMC were in May 2010.

Three committers committed changes to SVN in the last quarter.

Apache Project Branding Requirements

The project logo still needs a "TM" to be added to it.
