Hello John,

Interesting new project ! A few remarks :

> * Faxpp is the only XML pull parser available for C/C++.

libxml2 also support a pull mode (see 
http://xmlsoft.org/html/libxml-xmlreader.html and 
http://xmlsoft.org/examples/index.html#xmlReader).

Interesting approach. So I guess that the end to end performance depends 
on wether the returned strings and the source document encoding are the 
same or not ?
