"if it aint already in cpan its not good for anything" Nobody said anything remotely resembling that. We should gaurd against the feeling that what we have is already perfect O.k..... But nobody ever suggested that any of the existing XML parsing modules are perfect. there is always room for improvement You're missing something fundamental. Improvement means building on the state of the art — or at least incorporating the "lessons learned" from all the prior art. You have done no such thing. You've completely ignored the prior art, and therefore, you are not offering an improvement. Your preaching, therefore, rings mighty hollow. You're also reading things into the reactions you've gotten from other monks which simply aren't there. No one has shunned you. And you are in no position to talk about what "pre-concieved models" others might have. All of the advice offered you was given in the best of faith (if not always the most congenial of language). Your arrogance and self-pity are not (favorably) impressing anyone. * I give you 20 crackpot points for this ludicrous statement, plus 28 others, for a total of 43.
