Status of callback interface enhancements

Hi,

I am a developer with KMyMoney, and we are looking at using libofx as part of 
our software, so that we can import ofx files.  

I started to write our implementation, but ran into a few issues.  First off, 
there is no way to register callbacks, in our case, static C++ member 
functions.  I don't see how they would be called with the current library.  
The second issue, was that when the callbacks would be called, I do not have 
access to my class's instance.  I know with expat, the callback functions 
send you a void* that you can set in the beginning to associate with your 
class's instance.

If this is not possible/desired, have you considered a DOM-style interface, 
where the document is parsed, and client's can then walk the tree?  This 
would avoid the problem of having to have a callback mechanism.  

It looks like some of this has been covered in your mailing list, but I didn't 
see anything about what the final plan will be.  I'm currently trying out 
0.6.6.  

Thanks in advance,
Kevin Tambascio
