Yes. My SAX2 package has supported alpha, then beta1, and now beta2;
anyone who's wanted to has had fast, conformant SAX2 support (including
validation and all optional handlers) since last summer:
http://xml.org/archives/xml-dev/msg00666.html
My SAX/XML conformance test harness now uses the beta(2) APIs, as does
various other software that's unreleased.
Xerces 1.0.2 just got beta1+ support (XMLReader sans factory support,
plus some post-beta1 handler ID updates).
With name changes there's always a cost/benefit tradeoff. In this case
I'm not sure I see a real benefit. But I do see costs.
