Kicked off a discussion about the future of Apache Ivy at the Ant dev mailing list.

Received a recruiter message last week that stood out from the others:

I'm getting in contact on behalf of X, the creators of Apache Y

Nonsense.

Even if I was looking for a new job I'd stop reading at that point. The creators of Apache Y are the project's contributors, not X. X may be the inventor but in my conrete combination of X and Y that wouldn't be true, either. X may employ some of the contributors, but it does not create Apache Y.

If you allow recruiters to use such a phrase you first demonstrate you don't understand how the ASF works and second are obviously willing to lie. Why would I want to work for an employer who lies to me?

I've just released a small minor release of XMLUnit.NET that fixes a bug with whitespace normalization/stripping and adds a small feature simplifying the use of NodeFilters.

Full list of changes:

• added NodeFilters#SatisfiesAll and SatifiesAny methods to make it easier to combine multiple node filters.
  added to simplify the use case of xmlunit/#249
• when documents contained element content whitespace represented by System.Xml.XmlWhitespace the types and methods that are supposed to strip or normalize whitespace would fail.
  Issue #38

The major change of XMLUnit for Java 2.9.0 is the addition of a new module xmlunit-jakarta-jaxb-impl that can be used in addition to xmlunit-core when you want to use the Jakarta XML Binding API in version 3. For details please see the user's guide.

The full list of changes of XMLUnit for Java 2.9.0 is:

• added a new module xmlunit-jakarta-jaxb-impl that makes Input.fromJaxb use jakarta.xml.bind rather than javax.xml.bind. For more details see the User's Guide.

  This change is not fully backwards compatible. The JaxbBuilder class has become abstract and the withMarshaller method has changed its signature. For most cases the change will not be noticed and for almost all other cases it should be enough to re-compile your code against XMLUnit 2.9.x.
