I think a number of people on XML-DEV have a very similar requirement: The Coins approach, the SUN early release of XML, XXX (Steve Withall) and JUMBO. We all want object functionality client-side. The balance between client and server may differ, but we need an element-object API. I have raised this sporadically on XML-DEV and there is no doubt that we will benefit enormously from a shared API (created and developed in the same way as SAX). It seems that the time is right. We need some champions :-) Volunteers? P.
