Yes, but it is also available as a part of JWSDP. You don't need to use

We do recommend you to do so, and our tests have been done in that way,
but AFAIK there's no hard dependency. So you can use any version and it
should work.
But upgrading JAXP as well would be the smoothest experience for you.

It shouldn't. But keep your old copy just in case it breaks something!
