I didn't find ROADMAP.txt either in the *.zip, sax.jar or under the URL.

This may not be high-priority, but is there any check to make sure that the
driver is accessing the right version of Lark or MSXML? It's quite easy to
get fooled here as one could download a new version of SAX which catered
for a new version of FOO using FOODriver that one wasn't aware of. Tedious.
If the new version used different classes then one could test with the
ClassLoader.

Demos are always very gratefully received. For a simple-minded person like
me it would be nice to have a two-line demo for CharacterStream input (yes,
I haven't got to grips with java.io.Reader yet). Of the form:

String input = "<greetings>Hello world!</greetings>";
