I think this would be a cool feature. One of the points of COM is the clean separation of interface and implementation. If we can support the MS interfaces, but drop in a better implementation, then we'll all have more choices when working on Win32. A COM wrapper for Xalan/C would be nice as well,hypothetically speaking. I guess it depends on whether there are enough interested MS/COM type programmers here to sustain such an effort.

Please
respond to
xerces-dev
So, are you suggesting that if you had a COM wrapper for Xerces-C, that
looked just like the
MS COM API's, you might use it? Speaking hypothetically, of course.
If such a thing existed, would you be willing to help test it and maintain
it?
Hypothetically speaking,
