I'm new to Xerces-C++ but may I make one small suggestion to alleviate some of the 
confusion.

Add a note to the API docs for IDOM classes explaining their relationship to the DOM 
classes.  Currently the docs appear to be copies.  That might help until a decision is 
made about the next step...

I believe those two statements are directly related.  IDOM is faster, in
part, because it doesn't waste cycles on maintaining reference counts.


BTW, a point of personal peeve: IDOM _is_ an implementation of the Document
Object Model (DOM) APIs. It might be a good idea to find a better way to
refer to the older DOM implementation, to avoid confusion...
