One overall comment from me is about using XML and particularly SAX. We will have our Maven XML library but the core principle is that all of the transformations are in a streaming fashion, there is no overall view of the whole document, and you cannot go backward and you can't see the tags after the current point. SAX is more memory efficient but if this will be a base for the future we should take into account future needs. I will review carefully the patch when the approach is agreed by the community. I have already taken a first look, if you create the pull requests I can add comments Enrico > In order to make this successful, we need IDEs and CI Servers to > understand and support these changes.
