I didn't the reversion because I was very busy + Sylvain suggested 
another way instead of reversion. I am planning this weekend to do the job.

Here is the Sylvain mail:

I wonder if somebody is having troubles with the new xerces version 
2.7.0. I found we need to place the new xerces.jar  and xml-apis.jar m 
in java/lib/endorsed to make use of it.

All in all, please step up if the change is not desired at all.

Comments?
