If you (or someone you know) like the concept of VTD-XML, think that
it can help solve enterprises' XML processing related issues
(particularly those related to SOA), and would like to directly
influence and contribute to the development of the future of Internet,
please email me (crac...@comcast.net). We are looking for open source
software developers and project management people to take VTD-XML to
