Yep. Sourceforge gives a project their own repository [I'd assumed module
when I started, thus xmlwriter/xmlwriter]. We could have two separate
modules in the repository, one for xmlenc and one for xmlwriter.

Not used them a lot, but I think I get your drift.

I was thinking XmlIO at first, but a C++ project has that. Plus we do no
input. So how about XmlOutput? [then we just get to argue over XMLOutput
vs XmlOutput. Sun spec says XmlOutput, but even they don't obey that and I
suspect we should do XMLOutput].

Inside that we would then have separate module/sub-project names. Hix/Lox.
Hilo/Lolo.
