Hi,

I'm looking for a good SAX implementation for Ruby to do some XML
parsing.  I see from the mailing list archives you've just added the
pull-based XML::Reader based on the Microsoft C# API, but I want "real"
SAX-based event-driven parsing.

I also noticed that the current support for this in the library is based
on the now deprecated SAXv1 interface rather than the newer SAX2
interface.  Is there any plans to migrate this or change it?  Also, I
think it would be worthwhile implementing a filter mechanism similar to
the Java SAX API's XMLReader, XMLFilter and friends (originally, I saw
the XML::Reader subject in the archives and thought it may have been
already done).

Any info would be most appreciated.  My C is really rusty (did a little
about 3 years ago, but haven't seriously done anything with it for about
6 years), and I've never written a Ruby extension before.  However, I'd
really rather use Ruby for my project than Python (which already has all
of this stuff) because I just like Ruby better.  I might be able to
help, but I probably won't be the most efficient person in the world to
do this.

Thanks in advance,

ast
