[Tclxml-users] TclXML Sponsorship

[Steve B. <Ste...@zv...>]

Dear TclXML'ers,

Today I have been informed by Invisible Worlds that they will no
longer be continuing sponsorship of the TclXML project.
Obviously I'm very disappointed, but I would like to take the
opportunity to publically thank Invisible Worlds, and in particular
Marshall Rose and Marco Gazzetta, for their valuable support
during 2000.

The additional resources contributed by Invisible Worlds has
allowed Zveno to add support for XML Namespaces and XPath, 
as well as re-designing the C API.  The project was also moved 
to SourceForge during this period.  Alot of work has been done 
on TclDOM, such as adding support for DOM Level 2 Events and XPath.  
New, high-level constructs have commenced development, 
namely 'xmlswitch'.

Although some of these efforts have yet to be completed in the
form of software releases, we would not have progressed this far
without the resources contributed by Invisible Worlds.

Without sponsorship, or other forms of contributions, development
of TclXML and TclDOM will certainly slow down.  For this reason
I would urge any companies or organisations currently using these
packages to consider sponsoring the project.  Please contact me
if you are interested in doing this.

Regards,
Steve Ball
