So please contribute that patch or tell us more why it was rejected.

That's a very bad idea to me. Better to have one strong Ada tools that
zillions of not-well-supported forked ones. It is fine to have another
project to build an XML parser in Ada but for me a fork is really bad and
should happen only if there is *big* maintenance problem.

One good point on the Ada side is the strong standard. We really want to
build on this. Not a lot of libraries but some good, well documented, safe
ones that does the job.

Personally I would not like to find an AWS fork. I've tried (and will
continue to) to work with the contributors to have patches integrated.
But it is true that patches are not always very easy to integrate and
requires some changes.

Note that I know well the main XML/Ada maintainer and can tell you that if
a patch is not integrated yet there is certainly good reasons.

Another note. In this thread one guy (can't remember who sorry) talked about
CVS write access. This is not serious. To have a write access to a project you
really want to become part of the project team, take responsibilities for part
of it... and of course you can't keep the copyright, this would be a problem
for the product in the long term.

Anyway, just my 2 cents ;)

Pascal.
