Saxon XSLT and XQuery Processor Files

==============================

Saxon-HE 9.5 is the latest major release of the open-source edition of Saxon. 
It is available for both the Java and .NET platforms.

The current maintenance release is Saxon-HE 9.5.1.10.

The documentation for Saxon is at http://www.saxonica.com/documentation/
and includes a detailed list of changes for each release.

For the Java platform, download file SaxonHE9-5-1-10J.zip. Installation instructions are at:

http://www.saxonica.com/documentation/index.html#!about/installationjava

For the .NET platform, download file SaxonHE9-5-1-10N-setup.exe.
Installation instructions are at:

http://www.saxonica.com/documentation/index.html#!about/installationdotnet

The file saxon-resources9-5.zip contains documentation, sample files, test drivers and other miscellaneous resources. 
It is common to both platforms, and is not normally updated when new maintenance releases appear.

The file saxon9-5-1-10source.zip contains source code for both platforms; a new version is produced with each
maintenance release. Source code with the latest patches can also be obtained from a Subversion repository
maintained at http://dev.saxonica.com/archive/opensource. The Subversion repository on the SourceForge
site is no longer maintained.
