Ali, are you currently working on that? Would you mind re-creating new
entries in the commit fest app for the new set of patches that you are
planning to do?
For now I am switching this patch as returned with feedback.
Thanks,

What i mean, the last patch (v7 patch) as it is is enough to fix the bug (nested xpath namespace problem). I think the performance regression is still acceptable (in my case it's ~20%), because the bug is severe. Currently, xpath can return invalid xml because the namespace isn't included in the output!

What i'll be working is the v4 patch, because it turns out the v4 patch has better performance (~10%, but Peter's test shows it isn't the case). But, the problem is the v4 patch is organized wrongly, and hacks around the libxml's xml node structure (duplicating the namespace on the existing structure). I'll work on that, but it will affects the performance benefit.

So what i propose is, we close the longstanding bug in this comitfest with the v7 patch. I'll work on improving the performance, without compromising good code structure. If the result is good, i'll submit the patch.

Thanks
