RE: xerces vs jdom

[Dylan Walsh <Dylan.Walsh@Kadius.Com>]

Xerces is a parser that supports DOM and SAX APIs. JDOM uses Xerces as
its parser, and presents the results using the JDOM API.

My personal recommendation is to use either SAX or DOM directly with the
parser of your choice, such as Xerces or Crimson (part of JAXP).
