Hi John:

  Much of the XML DB's out there simply serialize the structure.  This
may work to a degree, but it ignores the power in RDBMS, and makes the
XML -> RDBMS mapping (and inverse mapping) slow.  Could you provide more
details on what your system does?  My interest is in part because I have
built an XML -> RDBMS mapper which doesn't serialize the data structure,
nor ties one to a particular database.  
 
  Joe
