Has anybody dealt with the data exchange xml standard called BMEcat?
I've got to hack a parser together quickly and I was hoping to nick
somebody else's code.
CPAN has a XML::BMEcat module, but it's aimed more at creating BMEcat
files rather than reading them.
May I forward your post to one of my company's internal humour/perl
