Re: GSXML, an SXML dialect

Have you guys looked at my project, SDOM?  It's a DOM implemented
around SXML, so I don't know if it's quite what you're looking for,
but I think it solves a number of the problems mentioned in your paper
-- for example:

- 1.2 / 1.3: In SDOM, XML nodes are "strongly typed," so to speak.
It's never ambiguous whether a node is an attribute or an element etc.
- 2.2: SDOM annotates SXML documents with parent node pointers and
maintains document node pointers for nodes when they are manipulated
outside the context of the full SXML s-expression.
- 2.3: SDOM is explicitly capable of ordering a document in document-order.
- 2.4: As required by the document normalization API in the DOM
recommendation, SDOM can join adjacent text nodes during
normalization.

Furthermore, all SDOM documents are also perfectly valid SXML
documents and can thus be passed to and from applications that only
speak SXML.  (I should point out that, at the moment, SDOM is only
compatible with GNU Guile, but compatibility with other Scheme
implementations should not be too difficult to achieve...)

There's a manual and links to download the module at:

Hope this helps!
