SAX feature documentation in docs/features.html: msg#00033

Subject: SAX feature documentation in docs/features.html

Hi everyone,

Regarding the note on docs/features.html being the canonical location for feature documentation, this document doesn't contain any of the features and properties for the extensions, for instance lexical-handler isn't there nor is declaration-handler.  On the web page, resolve-dtd-uris [1] is listed as one of the features for SAX2 extensions 1.1.  If that's true shouldn't it be documented somewhere. It was in package.html for org.xml.sax along with the description of every other feature and property.  I understand rolling out the SAX 2.1 stuff, but the file in CVS is basically empty now.  SAX 2.0.1 [2] provided the description of all of the features and properties in the package description.  It would be good to keep this information in the javadoc. I wasn't aware of docs/features.html until I looked in CVS.  These docs aren't posted on the website (in fact the page on features which is currently there refers to the org.xml.sax package description).  They also seem to get separated from the API when its distributed, for instance I don't see them in the zip for SAX 2.0.1.
