There are some support for java xml parsers in the xml package in
CPython2.0. Look at Lib/xml/sax/__init__.py for examples of this.

In the CVS version from the XML-SIG there are even more support (in
Lib/xml/dom/javadom.py and others).

I have no no clue on how it all fits together or how much we can
actually use. Which is why Lars is cc'ed, I hope he can shed some light
on this topic.

Questions to Lars:

What do we need to support the xml package in jython? There seems to
missing at least a sax drv_xxx for the common java sax libraries. What
else?
