I don't know the size of the OS and .NET framework on your cellphone, so
can't really judge on that point. Rotor appears to be nothing more than
a PR campaign, since it's only licensed for research use yet is
continually brought up by MS representatives to "show" that C# is
cross-platform. Mono lists this class as 90% complete, so that at least
sounds like it's a usable implementation on non-Windows platforms.
Outside of the MS and C# framework there are actually many different XML
writing APIs available, as most people on this list are well aware. I
work primarily in Java, so I'm mainly aware of those choices. The
XMLWriter class from David Megginson
(http://www.megginson.com/Software/xml-writer-0.2.zip) is a nice
lightweight API that has the advantage of also accepting SAX-style
events as input. The XMLPull XmlSerializer pointed out earlier is also
another good alternative, though I like the convenience methods provide
by XMLWriter.
