Jonathan and I spoke briefly at the conference about working together on a
combined effort of some sort - I could really use Mason's caching
technology, and he could really use my XML stuff. So maybe something will

it through. [Jonathan; are you coming to ApacheCon Europe? Maybe we can
bash heads again there?]
