RE: [xml] Release of libxml2-2.5.7

["Stefan Willmert" <stefanw intellanet com>]

Ok,
I'll reply with my comments also.

I use libxml for processing network requests. All requests are  xml based
requests. We also send xml data, but because of the overhead of xml
creation, i have always built my xml strings as standard strings, without
using any xml library support.

I also use libxml and libxslt to generate html pages from our embedded
webserver. It seems to work perfectly for my needs.

One More: libxml and sax are used to parse data files we regularly recieve.
These files are typically 5 million+ nodes, about 150 MB text files. Sax
parses the file in a matter of seconds. NICE JOB!

Thanx for the hard work

besides schema support I'd very much like an enhanced error handling
API, as we already discussed earlier...

I'm working on a document centered architecture for a CAS company
(Computer Assisted Surgery): http://www.orthosoft.ca, where all data
processing is organized around the concept of a 'patient record'.
That includes configuration data, persistent storage, and all kind of
other jazz. I'm using both, an SAX and a DOM based API for this.

It's working wonderfully thus far. Thanks for all your work !

Stefan
