Your timing is perfect.
Could someone explain what the benefits of the proposed Boost XML APIs would be over the existing Xerces (http://xml.apache.org/)?
I haven't looked at the design, but it seems that Boost.XML, like Arabica, will provide a C++ interface to make use of existing C parsers, e.g. libxml2 or xerces.

Xerces has good C++ support. I'm not sure if this discussion is about extending 'C' based XML parsers like libxml2 and Expat to provide C++ interface or to have a whole new XML parser within Boost. If it is later, Why? --Suman
