Given my background in real-time, embedded, systems, I'd like to see us improving performance, and doing a lot less movement of data. So I'm in favor of changes that reduce data movement. Here's a question for the lot of you: is this similar to DOM vs SAX, and if so, can we come up with a StAX solution? Just go with the analogy, but the issue is a best of both worlds. --- Noel --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
