I would agree that the DMO stuff isn't 100% stable but it
is already functional enough to be usable. I have been
using the DOM stuff in a production enviornment including
the XPath functionality for a good four or five months
now without major problems. The XSLT functionality is
coming along nicely as well.
I would suggest at least playing around with it to see
if it fits your needs. I think you will find advantages
to using it over the saxon-style stuff in the other
XML PHP functions, especially if you utilize the
XPath search functionality.
