Firstly, I think we should Synapse-user as well :-)
Personally, I'm not *so* sure the OMElement one is that useful -
because if you grok OMElement you can easily figure out MC.
On the other hand the DOM and StAX have an advantage that they are
java standard APIs. So I find those two more useful. Especially DOM as
you have to do some freaky stuff to convert from an OMElement to a
DOOM Element so if we got that out of the way for the user then that
would be goodness. Also we might end up fixing the bugs in the
LLOM->DOOM conversion process that have been bugging me the last
couple of days!!!
