Re: [xsl] [ANN]: Apache Xerces-J 2.12.1 now available

We've had the same issue with Saxon on Maven. For years we resisted putting 
Saxon on Maven, on the grounds that Maven allowed people to download the JAR 
files without the accompanying legal notices, which is contrary to the license 
conditions imposed by third parties. But other people started putting Saxon up 
on Maven, in some cases incorrectly and unsystematically, and so we basically 
had no choice but to start doing it ourselves.

Mukul, if Xerces team were responsible to publish to maven central, all these 
problems would disappear.

And, even if Adam and exist-db team are very kind and publish xerces under 
their groupId, we - end users - have no guarantee that artifacts published by 
others are the same that are published on xerces web page.

Would you rely on an MS Office update published by another organization than 
Microsoft ?

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

It seems that, the only way to get errors fixed for a release on Maven 
Central is to, request Sonatype via a jira issue and request them to remove 
the offending artifacts             (after which the corrected artifacts can 
be republished). Following is an example of how such a request to Sonatype 
should look like, 
https://issues.sonatype.org/plugins/servlet/mobile#issue/MVNCENTRAL-218 
<https://issues.sonatype.org/plugins/servlet/mobile#issue/MVNCENTRAL-218> 
(you may need to determine the right URL for the Xerces 2.12.1 artifact on 
the Maven Central server to tell to Sonatype, than what is suggested on the 
preceding example URL I've cited).

It'd be great if you could get this done. Otherwise, we shall live with this 
issue :)
