I've just provided an update here.  Only minor fixes were needed to those
parsers, but now there's more:

	- A "DOM Parser" emitting a SAX2 (alpha) event stream
	  given a DOM Document as input;

	- An "Echo Handler" which does a very accurate job of
	  turning such events back into well formed XML, with
	  full DOCTYPE declaration, comments, CDATA sections,
	  unexpanded entity references, and so on;

	- Some simple example code;

	- Some small tweaks to the license.  (Thanks John!)

And would you believe the README file has been replaced with a file
called "index.xml", valid and with CSS?  Works in Mozilla M6; I've
not tried M7 yet.  It's translated to HTML for users of Lynx, IE5, and
other browsers.  (IE5 doesn't handle lists, links, and some other
important features, but it's worth checking out what it does handle.)
