Hi Murkul,

Sorry about that. Unfortunately I cannot update artifacts on Maven
Central, releases there are considered immutable.

For anyone who uses Maven or Ivy, we have published Xerces 2.12.1
artifacts (including XML Schema 1.1 support) to Maven Central -
https://search.maven.org/artifact/org.exist-db.thirdparty.xerces/xercesImpl/2.12.1/jar


Thanks for publishing the Xerces-J 2.12.1 release to Maven central. I've 
observed little documentation inconsistencies, in the main Maven pom for 
Xerces-J 2.12.1 that you've published.

In the pom file that I've cited, instead of following,

<description>
        Xerces2 is the next generation of high performance, fully compliant 
XML parsers in the Apache Xerces family.
        This new version of Xerces introduces the Xerces Native Interface 
(XNI), a complete framework for building
        parser components and configurations that is extremely modular and 
easy to program. The Apache Xerces2 parser is
        the reference implementation of XNI but other parser components, 
configurations, and parsers can be written
        using the Xerces Native Interface. For complete design and 
implementation documents, refer to the XNI Manual.
        Xerces2 is a fully conforming XML Schema 1.0 processor. A partial 
experimental implementation of the XML Schema
        1.1 Structures and Datatypes Working Drafts (December 2009) and an 
experimental implementation of the XML Schema
        Definition Language (XSD): Component Designators (SCD) Candidate 
Recommendation (January 2010) are provided for
        evaluation. For more information, refer to the XML Schema page. 
Xerces2 also provides a complete implementation
        of the Document Object Model Level 3 Core and Load/Save W3C 
Recommendations and provides a complete
        implementation of the XML Inclusions (XInclude) W3C Recommendation. 
It also provides support for OASIS XML
        Catalogs v1.1. Xerces2 is able to parse documents written according 
to the XML 1.1 Recommendation, except that
        it does not yet provide an option to enable normalization checking as 
described in section 2.13 of this
        specification. It also handles namespaces according to the XML 
Namespaces 1.1 Recommendation, and will correctly
        serialize XML 1.1 documents if the DOM level 3 load/save APIs are in 
use.

we should have following,

<description>
        Xerces2 is the next generation of high performance, fully compliant 
XML parsers in the Apache Xerces family.
        This new version of Xerces continues to build upon the Xerces Native

        parser components and configurations that is extremely modular and 
easy to program. The Apache Xerces2 parser is
        the reference implementation of XNI but other parser components,

        Xerces2 provides fully conforming XML Schema 1.0 and 1.1 processors. 
An experimental implementation of the "XML Schema

The above suggested changes, are in line with what is currently mentioned on 
the Xerces-J home page (https://xerces.apache.org/xerces2-j/).

If you could do the above suggested changes (mentioned within <description> 
tag) in the cited Maven pom file, that'd be great.
