>             Project: Hibernate ORM
>          Issue Type: Improvement
>          Components: core
>    Affects Versions: 3.2.0 cr1, 3.2.0.cr2, 3.2.0.cr3, 3.2.0.cr4
>         Environment: all

> Hibernate XML mapping requires dom4j, which is one of the packages that causes the Java version of "dll hell" - applications requiring conflicting versions of jars with no way to resolve the problem in a given release of an application server or package.
> HIbernate should be converted to use the standard XML APIs included in the JRE 5.0 specification, when Hibernate no longer needs to support JRE 1.4.x.
