What you say is true. In fact, it's *STILL* true. In the meantime, Xerces has released version 1.7.0 and, most recently, version 2.0. I've been following the Xalan mail lists and comments from some of the developers suggest that co-ordination between the two groups could be better. This "thread" probably belongs on xalan-c-users@xml.apache.org. Mail me direct to continue.

Unfortunately, the Xerces and Xalan projects don't appear to be all that well co-ordinated. Makes it difficult to stay both current and compatible.

Huh - why do you think that? Simply reading the FAQ gives me "The Xalan-C++ release notes includes information about the Xerces-C++ release with which the Xalan-C++ release has been coordinated and tested." and even the Readme says "Xalan-C++ version 1.3 has been tested with Xerces-C++ version 1.6.0. Each Xalan-C++ version 1.3 download includes the Xerces-C++ distribution for the specified platform."
