it's a funny thing.

because on some projects, i am deep in the tree, others, i just refuse to
have anything to do with unreleased code!

for instance, i have been running FreeBSD since before 1.0 (and that's
going to be 9 years in october! wow! ) and i have *never* run
freebsd-current.

but the xerces stuff has been non-stop CVS because XMLSchema support is
very new for everybody, and the XMLSchema that i am working with
(MPEG7) is huge and it makes very aggressive use of the features therein.

that is my intent.

this is great. now that i have this 1 paragraph tutorial ( where they all
that simple :-) ) i will actually try and roll my own instead of being
passive and i'll send you the diffs.

i think that the deal is that the first one will be hard and you'll need
to talk me thru it, but after that it should make sense.

i noted with interest the speed in which you fixed the issue when i raised
it yesterday....

ps: now, what's *really* gonna suck is getting this ported to win32. 

that is where i have to ultimately run this thing. i am pretty concerned
about that because i cant get any answer from the guy that was allegedly
porting xerces-c to cygwin.
