XDK

Mon Feb 8 21:35:56 GMT 1999

Here here! I started a similar thread awhile ago. Include the whole family in the mix (XML, namespaces, schemas, RDF, SAX, DOM, ad nauseum), and you've got something. I think the XML universe really points more to a "programming language"/SDK model than a "markup" model.

This would be _wonderful_  for example, SAX and DOM should be 
designed/written so that they are complementary.  So that:

I could do:
     SAX -> DOM -> SAX'   Where Events(SAX') = Events(SAX)
and  DOM -> SAX -> DOM'   Where State(DOM') = State(DOM)
