NEW: XML Application Objects

[Terence]

I've just released the first distribution for an open-source project
called XML Application Objects (XAO). It's the result of working with
XML/XSLT in PHP for a couple of years now. Although this is an alpha
release, the concept itself has gone through a lot of refinement and is
now ready for prime time.

The publication of the project itself was partially motivated by the
discussions that took place in this thread (A Complete List of PHP
Template Engines?) which basically sees me arguing for the usage of
standards (XSLT) rather than having to learn a proprietary new
templating system every time you work on someone elses PHP app.

This project is the result of much blood, sweat, and tears so I hope
someone out there finds it useful. I have made documentation a paramount
considderation for the XAO API because I'm keen for it to be another PHP
success story. The website has a tonne of information so I'm not gonna
try and promote XAO in this message.

Please check it out...
