Re: NSXMLDocument

I stopped doing anything with it when it became apparent to me from the desgin of the API, that Apples new classes are actually a wrapper round libxml2 ... and we already have a wrapper round libxml2 in GSXML.m in the base library. So I couldn't decide what to do: We could implement a second wrapper around libxml2 following Apple's API and implementation details as closely as we can,

I (personally) vote for this option. Maybe we could even remove GSXML at some point. ;-)

Eg, Renaissance has separate XML parsing code for GNUstep and Apple. It would be nice to have been able to use a single API
across the two. :-)

Getting rid of libxml2 and going for the pure Objective-C route sounds like a big job ... for little gain, so I don't think it would
be very useful.

Thanks
