| In my own professional work, there are things that keep from
| reaching for Scheme for many of the tasks that come up.
| Interestingly, the draft document plus a package system give me
| hope that that might change. For example, I sorely miss (and am
| somewhat surprised to find missing) really efficient, beautifully
| coded, conforming, feature rich Scheme libraries for a lot of W3C
| fundamentals. Perl and Python libraries included multiple 65%
| solutions for things like parsing and printing XML, evaluating XSLT
| or XQuery transforms, etc. I'd have thought Schemers would have
| nailed that kind of thing by now.
The coming release of SLIB incorporates SSAX [(require 'xml-parse) or
(require 'ssax)]. It is available from:
http://swiss.csail.mit.edu/ftpdir/users/jaffer/slib.zip
and
