I agree and even think the integration of the X3DTK is a
little bit to much. We only need a simple XML parser (like
a skeleton :) to handle the XML syntax but the X3D semantics,
type mapping and parameter/field handling could be done
by backends --- and there is already a typesystem for VRML
with could be used for the X3D/XML frontend.

We use the expat (expat.sourceforge.net) which is
part of the mozilla project for our X3D loader and it
is quite nice:

- quite compact (not as huge as Xerces)
- C and C++
- there are already some SOAP extensions

I would love to see a expat based X3D loader for
OpenSG and would contribute some code.

so long
