Hi,

thanks for the information. This was exactly the information I needed to know.

To answer your question withou going into much details, our project involves
both programatically reading/modifying/processing xml files and also proposing
tools for users modifying these xml files (this is the point where Serna comes
in). We are still discussing which libraries we will use for programmatically
load xml files and it would be desirable (in our case) to use a different
library than the one used by the Xml Editor. 

Best regards and thanks,
