Could you take a look at this? :-) http://sourceforge.net/tracker/index.php?func=detail&aid=1729381&group_id=30550&atid=399601 > Excerpt from CHANGELOG: > > 20/11/2007 - 194900 Dr J A Gow > ------------------------------ > > Removed nasty loop from synchandler and replaced it with a blocking > event. > > 22/11/2007 - 191000 Dr J A Gow > ------------------------------ > > Hitherto the pathway of synced objects was horrible: > text->dom->text->libxml2->xslt->text->dom->text.
