We built it collaboratively here on XML-Dev.

I am, but not in any legal sense.  SAX is in the Public Domain, so
there's no legal barrier to stop you (or anyone else) from rereleasing
the same thing, with or without changes, and calling it SAX or
anything else.

So far, the development community has agreed to accept whatever I end
up releasing as "SAX", provide that there's a lot of discussion
first. Of course, that could change at any time.
