This is the problem that I had planned to avoid by prefixing all of the class names with "SAX...", but which, as people rightly pointed out, is a very temporary one that shouldn't leave a permanent mark on SAX. The people at DataChannel have been very supportive of and helpful with SAX, and I expect that this problem will vanish with a new DXP release not too long after SAX moves out of beta (the latter event will happen sometime this week, once everyone has had a chance to submit bug reports or documentation corrections). For the next couple of weeks, until we have new versions of AElfred, DXP, XP, and IBM's XML for Java with SAX 1.0 drivers, it might make sense to maintain two separate CLASSPATH's.
