Re: [xmljs-users] visual studio xmldocs for Version 3.1 w3c dom

[David J. <dj...@gm...>]

Hi Sky,

I think that would be a significant improvement of the code. There would be
a lot of work updating the docs and the test suites, but that's do-able
given time. I presume you're only suggesting doing this for the sax and w3c
parser? I wouldn't think doing this for the "classic" DOM would justify the
effort...

Best regards,

David
