waX has its own SourceForge project - waxml.sourceforge.net.
The code is in the CVS repository - you can check it out
anonymously like any other SF project.

There has not been a public release of waX because it has not
been developed to the point where it is usable by mere mortals.
I hope to achieve that sometime this year.  Roy Nurmi and
Johann Tienhaara joined the project last year, and they
are helping to progress the application.

Unfortunately, I've been side-tracked for the last couple of
months (on my "Simple Content Management System") so not
much is happening at the moment.

Eventually, waX will require TclDOM/libxml2 and TclXSLT.
By the time it reaches a publically-releasable state
the underlying C code will be available for Windows,
either as part of ActiveTcl or StarKit.  I'm planning
on distributing it as a StarPack.

Cheers,
Steve Ball
