I wrote a little XML parser
http://www.ericsson.se/cslab/~joe/xml/xml.html

This is actually a verifying parser (1378 lines of code!) - It doesn't
do unicode or
handle the ANY tag. To make a real XML parser I think the correct way to

go would be to use expat as a front end (to do the lexical stuff) and
then
add the parrsing and sunsequent verification in Erlang - volunteers?

Speaking of lexical stuff, I've seen references to a lexer called
"leex" around, but I haven't found the actual software. Is it around and
usable somewhere?
