Proposal for Split of xml-commons

[Matt Wringe]

Hi,

I would like to propose the exclusion of xml-commons from Fedora 7, to
be replaced by xml-commons-apis and xml-commons-which.
 
The current xml-commons srpm produces the apis and which packages, but
each is built from a separate source and it not building in a sane
manner.

I have split each of these projects into their own srpms:
xml-commons-which and xml-commons-apis.
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=232555
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=232557
(these packages have already passed fedora extras review)

Inclusion of these packages will mean that the xml-commons package will
no longer be needed in Fedora 7.

This will also mean the removal of the xml-commons binary rpm. This rpm
didn't contain any code, only a couple of license files, and was only
used by the subpackages.
The new xml-commons-apis virtual provides xml-commons so there shouldn't
be any issue with its removal.

Thanks,

Matt Wringe
