We have an XML library proposal. I know Tomek Sowinski was working on
such. What is the status?
The writer is close to being ready to be discussed, I've been working on the
documentation lately. As for the parser, I got a pretty much good idea how to
go about it but the code is pretty much in the woods. At work I've changed
teams which entails lots of reading to get myself up to pace in the new area,
travelling to an office abroad, and working till late with code I don't know
yet. Now, that's not an excuse, just an honest answer to what's taking so
long. I'm still willing to pull this module through. The work frenzy is
clearing out and most probably I'll have the time to do some solid work this
month and on.
Does Tomek or someone else want to apply as a
mentor for this project?
Perhaps let's do it this way: I'll finish the writer, get it through community
scrutiny myself, out of GSoC. The GSoC contribution to std.xml will be limited
in scope to parsing. I will serve as a light bulb with all I read up so far on
the topic, the lessons learned from my tries, and several years of experience
with D. This way the density of reviews as well as the odds of bringing the
module home will be higher.
If that sounds good, let me know how to apply as a mentor.
