Hi,

The name XML_Serializer makes this class sound like a php reimplemenation of WDDX but your comments seem to make it seem that be more power. Im asuming the vision is to Write equivalent of the Native php extension i've heard about for php5. Maybe something like XML_Data_Generator would work better, or at least if its going to be called XML_Serializer can you create some documentation showing some standard use cases so we can see where this differs from just using wddx.

This will NOT be an implementation of simpleXML, it's only serializing data structures in a customizable XML format, therefore XML_Serializer is the best fitting name. After releasing the package, I'll write documentation and also propose one or two packages that make use of XML_Serializer. Stephan

Without documentation of how and why this is any better than wddx_serialize_*(), I am -1. Greg
