Would anyone be interested in an Ada package that parsed XML (including DTDs
and entities, with namespace support), but which was written with an
interface that is (hopefully) better suited to Ada than DOM or SAX?

I have partially written such a package. It is similar to the DOM, but
slightly higher-level, and much more Ada-friendly (I think). I am in a
quandary whether to pursue writing this package (for my own XML processing
needs) or drop it and use someone else's. If I finish it, I'd be happy to
release it under the GPL.
