Alex, I certainly agree, that a (complete) grove is probably the most powerful and complete way of accessing a documents data. I am not convinced however, that it is always necessary to built a grove. My view on this is : ----------------------------------------------- - application - ---------------------------------- - - grove/tree builder - - ----------------------------------------------- - event stream (Esis++) - ---------------------------------- NXP - - core parser - ----------------------------------------------- You can always built a more powerful layer on top of an event stream. Furthermore we should also consider the work of the DOM group. Their results will have a considerable impact on our work as well. If we can provide a flexible low level layer, we can always add more fancy and specialized post-processors on top of it. -- Best regards, Norbert H.
