either I check-in the pull parser as part of xml module or in a
complete new project; having it as additional module makes no sense as
we would still introduce the new dependencies

This is exactly my point and why I kicked off this thread... both
choices aren't fine

JDK6 and JAXP 1.4

yep

that was one point why you choose to take JavaCC - ANTLR requires a
runtime library
for the prototype - and as you hadn't had a decision at this point -
we took ANTLR as it is easier to build a grammar with it

I'm currently thinking we should:
* check it into xml module
* transfer the grammar to JavaCC
* introduce the StAX dependency

Have fun
