XML and SDL are fully equivalent. If you name your descriptor hivemodule.xml then it should be in XML format.
For XML documents, HiveMind uses JAXP to locate a SAX parser. For SDL, it uses its own internal parser. Both generate the same SAX parse events, and the rest of the code inside the DescritptorParser class doesn't know or care which format its reading ... it sees elements and attributes and character data and turns that into module descriptor objects. -- Howard M.
