Moving house again. Want to write a little more about my work, and I think a more extensive blog system is the way to go. Installed Movable Type 4 and will be updating over there from now on. I’ve copied a few entries from here to preserve continuity. If I get around to it, I’ll bring over the rest of the data from here, Vox, my old MT installation, and maybe LJ too. Probably too lazy though.

Groovy StAX builder (Dejan Bosanac)
Neat. I wasn’t aware of Jettison. Cosmo can represent EIM record sets in XML and JSON. It uses StAX to read and write the XML, JSON Tools to read the JSON, and JSON-lib to write the JSON. It would be super useful to use a single API for all of these tasks.

Too bad you have to pay to see the whole article. I would like to know how the conclusion follows from the evidence.
