Actually, I have already implemented a "Pull Wrapper" on 
top of SAX. 

Having two separate APIs for two completely different 
approaches to parsing is probably a cleaner than having a 
"Monser-SAX" doing everything. 

If someone else is implementing a pull parser, we should 
try to agree on a common, parser independent interface.
(e.g. org.xml.pullparser.* ?).

I would like it very much if we could just something 
similar to my current interface (I am nearly through 
implementing an XSchema parser using it), but I am 
open for everything...

My wrapper is LGPL-available at http://www.trantor.de/xml

It is already able to process namespaces. 

Best regards

Stefan
