[XML-SIG] TREX feedback.

Greetings all,

I just wondered if anyone would be prepared to comment on their experiences
with pyTrex, or with Trex in general.

I've got some structural validation requirements that I need to address, and
I have a choice of using either DTDs, Schemas or Trex.

Obviously DTDs are well supported, and I'm familiar with them too, so I'd be
happy to use them.

I think that XML-Schema is perhaps overpowered for my needs, given that all
I really need to do is structural validation.

Knowing the pedigree of Trex, i.e. that it was designed by James Clark, that
seems to a strong incentive to at least consider its use.

Does anyone have any feedback, good or bad, on the use of Trex, or the
Python implementation of same?

Regards,

Alan Kennedy.
