Hi,

Curious if any future diff is planned that does not do the diff with a =
flat file comparison but checks the equivalence of the xml hierarchical =
info.  A problem I am having is some individuals like to use XMLSpy =
which doesn't leave the flat file alone when editing like NetBeans does. =
 After I give them a document to edit and they send it back, finding the =
differences can be brutal because they have changed the white space =
characters.  Any thoughts?

Regards,

Roger
