Hey Robert. Thanks for pointing this out. I didn't realize that others are thinking about representing filter rules as XML. I think our goals at Zimbra are a bit different. For simplicity's sake, we limit the kinds of scripts that users can generate. This makes it easier to write a UI-based filter rule editor. A general-purpose XML mapping is more than we need at this point. I'll keep this RFC in the back of my mind if we need to expand the filtering functionality in the future. > 2 a suitable visitor might be useful for standard or custom > transformation to xml I wrote a visitor framework for what I'm doing, just to maintain my sanity with tree navigation. Currently there's a good amount of Zimbra-specfic stuff i there. Let me poke around and see if I can split out the general node navigation code. Should be easy enough to write a Node->String converter once that's in place.
