Which brings us back to Andrei's point. There are plenty of other good XML libraries out there. We have no need to base Phobos code off of Tango. Let's just drop it and move on. I only brought up Tango in the first place to point out that it is a goal of the new std.xml to at least come close to Tango's performance in parsing XML, because Tango's XML parser is very fast. It's a point which has been brought up before and I believe that it still holds. However, that doesn't mean that we need to deal with the Tango API or source code, and we definitely don't want any more debates about "us vs them" or any such nonsense. Let's just move on. - Jonathan M Davis
