It may be worth quoting that:
- it's livable to be registered to commons-dev without filter (you
need a swift delete key)
- the filter practice is deep anchored until the netiquette for both
commons-dev and commons-user so that mails without the project prefix
are very quickly warned about and corrected

I don't see why it's not a good fit for Commons. We've a few xml
related components in the dormant section. I think a component with
things for both SAX and DOM would be fine, and letting it grow
organically would also work well.

Hi,
In the Apache Tika project [1] we use SAX quite a lot, and have
written a set of quite useful general utility classes for SAX
handling.
For example, in org.apache.tika.sax [2] we have the following:
* ContentHandlerDecorator - Convenient base class for writing
ContentHandler decorators
* EmbeddedContentHandler - Decorator that blocks startDocument() and
endDocument() calls
* TeeContentHandler - Forwards SAX events to multiple handlers
* TextContentHandler - Decorator that blocks everything but character
events (and start/endDocument)
* WriteOutContentHandler - Writes the contents of all character
events
to a Writer
In org.apache.tika.sax.xpath [3] we have a simple XPath subset
implementation that supports streaming and filtering of SAX events.
In
other words, the implementation doesn't need a DOM tree to evaluate
XPath statements.
I believe this code would be useful also outside Tika, and I was
thinking that it might perhaps make sense to create a Commons project
for this. I also know of some SAX processing classes in Cocoon and
Jackrabbit that could well be of interest to a wider audience.
Do you think something like this would be interesting as a Commons
project? Are there other similar efforts that I should know of? I
looked at XML Commons in xml.apache.org, but it seems pretty dormant.
