High Level issues:
=================
If you want to help in any of the following areas ... PLEASE jump in.


Platforms:

Get to work on other platforms (See INSTALL for details).

Quality:

* Complete test suite to test all APIs.
* Performance analysys and improvements.

Documentation:

* Move all API docs into POD, so they are accessible via perldoc

Samples:

* More example applications


Internals:
==========
Sun Oct  8 2006
* remove libtool linking for libutil
* using autoconf to handle the Perl module version problem
* clean up Makefile.PL to remove old Xerces-C library version checking code
* check memory leaks
  - Perl/typemaps-xmlch.i - are the returned vars leaking? do we need
    sv2mortal()
* PSVIWriter.pl
* why is InputSource dynamic resolver not returning StdInInputSource? 
  DOMLSInput.t
* why is DOMImplementation.t segfaulting after test 4? 
  createDocumentType(undef) is not throwing exception
* why is 00basic.t failing?
  - 4: getErrorHandler() not returning XML::Xerces::ErrorHandler
static swig_type_info _swigt__p_XERCES_CPP_NAMESPACE__ErrorHandler = {"_p_XERCES_CPP_NAMESPACE__ErrorHandler", "XERCES_CPP_NAMESPACE::ErrorHandler *", 0, 0, (void*)0, 0};
  
  last argument should not be (void*)0 - it should be
  (void*)"XML::Xerces::ErrorHandler". ErrorHandler.hpp is being
  %imported not %included
  - 19: document is forgotten - another f***ing 'defined' macro replacement
* move classes to IO:
  - DOMLSInput/Output
  - Wrapper4InputSource/DOMLSInput

Sat Sep 9 2006
* unify Handler/ classes into Xerces/XercesSAX/XercesDOM
* email c-dev: why are the TypeInfo XML files broken?
* DOMLSInput::setStringData() was broken - the XMLCh* is deleted by
  SWIG after it is set. Check for other data that Xerces-C doesn't adopt
* DOMLSParser
  - test DOMErrorHandler
  - test EntityHandler
  - test DOMLSResourceResolver
* move other code out of XML::Xerces into new modules:
  - Handler
* approximate codebase sizes: 
  44328  127438 1538438 Xerces.cpp
  26517   78805  914588 DOM/Xerces_DOM.cpp
  14132   43098  479167 SAX/Xerces_SAX.cpp
   6654   21313  236250 IO/Xerces_IO.cpp

  45550  130667 1576523 Xerces.cpp
  29010   85970  989933 DOM/Xerces_DOM.cpp
  14010   42589  470235 SAX/Xerces_SAX.cpp

* why is createXMLReader dispatcher not working - mail swig-dev
* why are classes that implement XMemory ignored unless we %import it?
* why are all SAXExceptions being ignored by catch()? namespace?
* moving all %ignore out of ignore.i into class.i files

Tue Aug 22 23:47:05 IST 2006
* need tests for the new DOM additions:
%include "dom/DOMLSException.i"
%include "dom/DOMLSSerializer.i"
%include "dom/DOMLSSerializerFilter.i"
%include "dom/DOMLocator.i"
%include "dom/DOMErrorHandler.i"
%include "dom/DOMPSVITypeInfo.hpp"
%include "dom/DOMError.hpp"

* must tested cached grammars
* support for void* in DOMNode::[gs]etUserData()
* questionable interfaces
%include "dom/DOMUserDataHandler.hpp"


Sun Jun  2 11:38:11 MDT 2002
* use %newobject and %typemap(newfree) for methods like removeNode()
