Sorry, that was a misapprehension on my part.

I've been taking another look at the DOM interface (of XML/Ada 1.0), and I
really am convinced that my own interface is significantly better (more
concise, more efficient), so I'm going to go ahead and develop it. Perhaps
what I'll do is to get it working minimally as quickly as I can, post it
somewhere public, and see if anyone likes it. It is really an alternative to
the DOM, rather than direct competition.
