sounds interesting - in what stage is it now?

i think you can get the same behavior by calling flush() or text("") as
both methods will call close tag (the difference is that text() will
write no output and will not flush iunderlying output stream)?

could you try and let me know if it worked for you? it owuld be good to
make sure that XmlSerializer  works well for streaming.

also if you use XmlSerializer you may consider XmlSerializerWrapper that
is addon to XmlPull API and is npow part of XPP3 1.1.3.1, this interface
adds new useful methods to wite more XML in less amount of code (such as
frgment()) for more details see:
http://www.xmlpull.org/v1/doc/addons.html#wrapper

thanks,

alek
