name: Robert Hanson email: [EMAIL PROTECTED] homepage: none preferred user-ID: RHANSON description of what you're planning to contribute: XML::RAX - A module based on Sean McGrath's RAX proposal http://www.xml.com/pub/2000/04/26/rax/index.html. DSLI entry: adpO 44 character description: Record-oriented API for XML It would be very nice, if you could also send a note... The idea came from the the RAX article by Sean McGrath which was posted on XML.com Friday (4/29). I had never heard of RAX before, so I sent a mail to Sean asking where to find the RAX spec and mentioned my interest in creating a Perl module for it. He replied urging me to write the module, and mentioned that there is no official spec of RAX. If RAX takes off, he plans on writing up an official spec and hosting a web site for it. It has only been 36 hours since the article came out on XML.com, so I doubt there has been much discussion about the usefulness of RAX. By the time you get this, I should have already sent out a mail to ActiveState's XML-Perl list and XML-DEV announcing this module. Thanks, Robert
