Re: [xml-dev] Parsing XML with anything but

[Tei <oscar.vives@gmail.com>]

many things may bias programmers over a solution A "bad" over other B "good".

- A is the first thing wen you find in google, and has examples in stackoverflow articles

- A is well documented, with examples

- A has a good api, and integrate well with the existing stuff, feeling native.

So basically:

- Extended use

- Documented

- Examples

- Native

other rules may apply:

- Friends don't let friends scrape markup text using regex.  So a programmer that know that is doing may avoid a regex found in a post in a forum. 

- Markup text on the wild can be broken, and is often broken, tools *must* deal with it and survive.  The tools need to be able to be feed with incorrect markupt and output correct markup.
