XOM API for Processing XML with Java

[Wolfgang Hoschek <whoschek AT lbl.gov>]

Hmm, weird.

The xom.jar shipped with nux is from XOM 1.1 CVS where class 
nu.xom.Node imports Jaxen as those are needed in it's XPath query() 
methods. I always thought that unless one uses those methods, the Jaxen 
jar files would be optional. Turns out not to be the case - they are 
always needed. Probably because they are part of the public interface 
and perhaps used by java to calculate a unique ID of its public API.

Anyway, you can download the jaxen-1.1* lib from XOM's CVS: 
https://xom.dev.java.net/source/browse/xom/lib/

To Elliotte: Is it really intended that XOM users need the jaxen jars 
even if they don't use them? Any known work-around?
