XML hackers mich be interested to note that I've checked
some new XML API stuff into biojava-live.  There's an
extra package, org.biojava.utils.stax.  It's basically
a (very) lightweight extension of SAX which allows you
to build modular event-based parsers rather than having
to have everything go through a single ContentHandler.

It was originally written as the lowest level of my new
event-based parser for XFF, but having tried it out, I
think it will be useful for handling all sorts of complex
and modular XML formats.

Let me know if you find this useful,


    Thomas.
