I wonder if you'd be willing to do a presentation on XML::LibXML some time?
I'm currently trying to work my way toward grokking AxKit and the
foundations it is built upon. So any discussion of LibXML and/or XForms
would be very welcome. Your comments remind me of how the AxKit people
recommend XML::LibXML 1.52 over 1.53. And as AxKit is based upon so very
many other modules there are certain combinations of modules which are more
favored than others...
