My use of XML with JESS is about two years ago.  I also 
suggested that using XML with JESS was important, but the 
community was not too interested.

I have made several toy applications.  In one, using
the freely available IBM AlphaWorks XML Parser (deriving from 
w3c, pieced out with IBM additions.), I created a SAX parser 
which entered new facts upon ecountering parsed ELEMENTS.  When 
the end of the document is encountered, an inference is made.

The task was to check the validity of a document, produced in
a simplified dialect of SGML, which has no trouble being read
as XML.  So you see it was simplified from some more real-world
situations, although it was real-world.

Somewhat later, the work was stopped because the containing project
took a different direction. At that time I was deepening this to 
produce good messages as to what was wrong.

Today, to do the same job, I would also condider using XSLT as a
set of document rewriting rules, but XSLT was not availale then.
I am not claiming that I would not use JESS to do the same job 
today, but the conclusion was foregone at that time.
