Can anyone send us links to the Sun and IBM versions please?  Are these
Java or C++ implementations?  I'm using the java Tidy  html parser because
the OpenXML one is way too unforgiving of unwellformed HTML.  But I'd
prefer to use something else (also java) because Tidy's not built for
speed.

Thanks in advance,

Note that we have a couple of people who would like to donate an
HTML parser to xml.apache.org, to be added to Xerces.  The ones I know of
are:

     ExOffice (extremely well tested, used for web spiders),
     Sun (I haven't seen it yet), and
     IBM (I haven't seen it yet either).

I suspect that if people are interested in this, we ought to have people
look at all three,
and figure out whether one is better, or whether they should be merged
somehow before
being checked in...assuming there's interest in this!

Any volunteers?
