Hi,
I'm proud to announce that std.experimental.xml v0.1.0 is
available on DUB [1]!
This is the project I'm working on for GSoC 2016. It aims to
become a substitution for Phobos std.xml. Now you can easily
try it and provide some feedback. I will soon create a WIP PR
on the Phobos repository.
I suggest you to depend on ~master instead of v0.1.0, as
bugfixes and enhancements are added on a daily basis (v0.1.0 is
already one commit behind!)
Current limitations:
1) The documentation [2] is very limited;
2) Some advanced DOM methods are not completely implemented;
3) Some advanced features (e.g. DTD validation, namespace
checks) are not yet available.
If you find any issue / have any suggestion, please file an
issue on Github [3].
Thank you.

I have two comments.
What is the plan for the string interner and the allocator-based
appender ?
They are neither part of the package, nor proposed in phobos, it
seems that you'll encounter a problme in the package structure
itself. This is also problemtaic now if I want to test it I have
to add 3 import paths to sc.conf.
I suggest you either to propose them for phobos or to add them in
a subpackage "internal" **inside xml** (or in a big internal.d
module) like it's done for several phobos packages (algos,
ndslices).

I see a naming problem in you "fast" strings: fastIndexOf,
fastEqual etc.
This is not good: does it mean that phobos's equivalent are slow
? Does it mean that you'll also propose slow equivalents (This is
absurd, but it shows the problem).
