XOM API for Processing XML with Java

[Elliotte Harold <elharo AT metalab.unc.edu>]

Hello folks,

I had a few minutes to spare while some large files downloaded for 
another project and I seem to have come to a temporary stopping place in 
XOM development so I decided to take what I have and call it alpha 4. 
Please give it a try and let me know how it works for you. Of note is 
that this release has been compiled and built with Java 1.5-beta 2. The 
code should still be compatible with 1.2 and later VMs, but yell if it 
causes you any problems and I'll recompile with 1.4.

As usual you can download it from here:

http://cafeconleche.org/XOM/

There are no backwards incompatible changes to the published API in this 
release.
Changes since the previous release include:

Nodes.remove(int)</code> now returns the node removed.

The IBM virtual machine 1.4.1 is no longer special cased.

The API documentation has undergone extensive editing.

The unpublished nu.xom.xerces package has been removed.

If no one spots any major problems with this release, I'll probably 
announce it more broadly early next week. Happy XML!
