The following are the currently-planned release requirements for Expat 1.95.4. Items will not be removed from this page; if a requirement is dropped or delayed, it will be moved to the appropriate section at the end and the reason for the change will be noted.

Expat 1.95.4 Requirements

• The SkippedEntityHandler patch should be checked in and thoroughly debugged.
  See SF patch #559910.
  Status: Done.

• SF bug #441449 should be resolved.
  Status: Done.

• Hard tab characters will be removed from all source files. They will be replaced with spaces.
  See SF bug #570903.

Delayed Requirements

• The InternalEntityRefHandler feature needs to be implemented and tested.
  See the comments for SF patch #429501.
  Status: Delayed: This was delayed to a future release to allow urgent bugfixes to be released sooner rather than being delayed by this feature. The interface for this feature is proving difficult to design, so this deserves more consideration.

• The build process on Unix should create both libexpat.{a,so} and libexpatw.{a,so} by default. Status: Delayed: Delayed since we don't want the build process changes to hold up the release of real bug fixes. We can have another release later.
