[fedora-java] Intention to retire xml-commons-apis12

Hi,

Would anyone object to me retiring the "xml-commons-apis12" package in F20?

It is a compatibility package that has been hanging around for years that
provides an earlier version of the APIs provided by the "xml-commons-apis"
package.

All packages that need these APIs should be requiring or buildrequiring
xml-commons-apis instead. The last remaining package in F20 that used this
package was axis and I have just committed a patch for the that allows it
to build against the newer xml-commons-apis.

With no more packages in Fedora that depend on xml-commons-apis12 I would
like to retire it for F20 and later.

Mat
