Group for discussing development of a new high-performance streaming xml parser, Aalto Xml Parser (project home page is at: http://www.cowtowncoder.com/hatchery/aalto/index.html).
Discussion will initially be focused about general direction of the project itself (including details of making implementation available publicly, preferably as Open Source).
Aalto parser is non-validating xml parser written in Java that implements Stax and SAX APIs.

Of historical interest may be the fact that implementation started as a
proof-of-concept for testing out potential alternative implementation techniques compared to Woodstox (http://woodstox.codehaus.org).
While project itself is not directly linked to Woodstox project, its authors are.
