Don't worry all here are volunteers. I would like to see your work in a branch of GXml, it almost compile in master (if not please tell me and can fix it for you).

May you can merge some of your work in order to see its progress. Remember is a good idea to commit early.

I don't see any problem because they'll be merged in future.

This is a great idea! Just we need to check license issues.
Richard have the idea to rewrite libxml in Vala any way, may be most of your work will be reused by DOM.
I think use Xml.TextReader behind is really good to parse XML documents.

Just Richard have created. These are the firsts messages.
And need to suscribe I think.
