New xercesImpl compatible with java 1.1 2003-01-10 - By Joseph Kesselman
As far as I know, both Xerces and Xalan are still intended to run with Java 1.1.8 (the "final bug fix" version of 1.1). The developers are mostly on 1.3 or later, so dependencies on newer JDKs do creep in occasionally; if you find one, report it.
Maintaining compatability with 1.1 JDKs is a significant nuisance, and may even be costing us some performance. Unfortunately, every time we've asked about abandoning it the Apache community has told us "I've upgraded but my customers won't, or can't, and I'm not in a position to force them to do so. I really do still need 1.1 support."
