 <h2>The Apache Xalan Project</h2>
 <p>We are proud to release version 1.11 of our Xalan C++ project. This is
 the first product distribution release since Apache Xalan was reformed in 2011.
 </p>
 <p>The Apache Xalan Project develops and maintains libraries and programs
 that transform XML documents using XSLT standard stylesheets.  Our
 subprojects use the Java and C++ programing languages to implement
 the XSLT libraries.
 </p>
 <p>The Apache Xalan Project was reformed in 2011. It started as a
 subproject of Apache XML which has since been officially retired.
 The Apache Xalan Project continues as a top-level project governed by the
 Apache Software Foundation as a collaborative software development community
 dedicated to providing robust, full-featured, commercial-quality, and
 freely available XSLT support on a wide variety of platforms.
 </p>
 <p>The supported specifications are defined by the
 <a href="http://www.w3.org/TR/xslt">W3C XSL Transformations (XSLT)
 Version 1.0</a> and the <a href="http://www.w3.org/TR/xpath">XML Path Language (XPath) Version 1.0</a>
 recommendations.

 <h3>Apache Xalan Projects</h3>
 <p>There are currently two subprojects under the Apache Xalan Project:
 <a href="xalan-c/index.html">Xalan C++</a>, and
 <a href="xalan-j/index.html">Xalan Java</a>, representing
 C++ and Java implementations of the
 <a href="http://www.w3.org/TR/xslt">W3C XSL Transformations (XSLT)
 Version 1.0</a> and the
 <a href="http://www.w3.org/TR/xpath">XML Path Language (XPath) Version 1.0</a>
 recommendations.
 </p>
 <p>Both the Java and C++ development teams provide libraries and
 executable programs to transform XML documents using XSLT stylesheets.
 </p>
 <p align="right" size="2">
 <a href="#content">(top)</a>
 </p>
 <h4>Xalan C++ Project</h4>
 <p>The <a href="xalan-c/index.html">Xalan-C</a> project officially
 released version 1.11 on November 2, 2012.  The most significant
 enhancement is the ability to supply top-level stylesheet parameters of
 various types.  They include string, nodeset, and number.  A nodeset
 paramter can be any parsed XML document or XML fragment.  A number
 parameter can be any value of type double.  A string parameter is any
 unicode text string.
 </p>
 <p>Xalan-C 1.11 supports C++ development and has been successfully tested on the
 following platforms</p>
 <ul>
 <li>Microsoft Visual Studio 2003</li>
 <li>Microsoft Visual Studio 2005</li>
 <li>Microsoft Visual Studio 2008</li>
 <li>Microsoft Visual Studio 2010</li>
 <li>Linux and GCC 4.4.5</li>
 <li>Solaris-10 with SunStudio-12.3</li>
 <li>FreeBSD-9 with GCC 4.2</li>
 <li>OpenBSD with GCC</li>
 <li>AIX</li>
 </ul>
 <p>Xalan-C builds should also work for Mac OsX, HPUX, and some IBM mainframe
 and AS400 platforms.
 </p>
 <p>The GNU make utility should be used with the UNIX/POSIX platforms.
 </p>
 <p>The <a href="old/xalan-c/index.html">Xalan-1.10</a> and older
 releases are available on the <a href="http://archive.apache.org/dist/xml/xalan-c">
 Apache Archives</a>.
 </p>

 <a href="#content">(top)</a>
 </p>
 <h4>Xalan Java Project</h4>
 <p>There are no new Java products available since Apache Xalan was reformed.
 The current development for <a href="xalan-j/index.html">Version 2.7.D2</a>
 reflects the work in progress in the
 <a href="http://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/xalan/xalan-j/trunk/">subversion repository</a>.
 </p>
 <p>The old <a href="old/xalan-j/index.html">Xalan-J 2.7.1</a>
 distributions are still available on the
 <a href="http://archive.apache.org/dist/xml/xalan-j">Apache Archives</a>.
 </p>
 <p>There is continuing effort to prepare for a new Xalan Java patch release.
 You can follow the efforts and post your own contributions
 on the Java users and developers mail lists.

 <h3>What is XSLT and XPath?</h3>
 <p>XSLT is the first part of the
 <a href="http://www.w3.org/TR/xsl/">Extensible Stylesheet Language (XSL)</a>.
 It includes the XSL Transformation (XSLT) vocabulary and
 XPath, a language for addressing parts of XML documents.
 XSL also includes a vocabulary for specifying formatting semantics, however,
 this is not part of the Apache Xalan Project.  For more information on formatting objects, see the
 <a href="http://xmlgraphics.apache.org/fop/">Apache XML Graphics (Formatting Objects Project)</a>.
 </p>
 <p>XSLT implementations, sometimes referred to as XSLT processors, use an XSL stylesheet to transform
 XML documents into HTML, text, or other XML document types.
 In structural terms, an XSL stylesheet
 specifies the transformation of one tree of nodes (the XML input)
 into another tree of nodes (the output or transformation result).

 <h3>Getting Involved</h3>
 <p>We always appreciate people and organizations that wish to help
 in the development and project support efforts.</p>

 <p>You can follow the activity by reviewing the project
 mail lists.  Posting messages to these lists is how we
 coordinate the activites related to the our projects.</p>

 <p>The developers mail list [<a href="mailto:dev@xalan.apache.org">xalan-dev</a>]
  is for communicating issues to the Apache Xalan development teams.
 Both the Java and C/C++ groups monitor the developers list.
 All project change notices are posted to the developers list.</p>

 <p>Each subproject has its own mail list for project specific user
 issues.</p>

 <p>The user list for Xalan C++
  [<a href="mailto:c-users@xalan.apache.org">xalan-c-users</a>] is
 for general user comments on the Xalan C++ project.</p>

 <p>The user list for Xalan Java
  [<a href="mailto:j-users@xalan.apache.org">xalan-j-users</a>] is
 for general user comments on the Xalan Java project.</p>

 <p>The Apache Software Foundation has guidance on
  <a href="http://www.apache.org/foundation/getinvolved.html">how to
 participate</a> in the various development efforts.</p>
