[erlang-questions] new version of Erlsom XML parser

[Ahmed Ali]

Hi Willem,

Thanks for the information. How about backword compatibility with
previous versions of erlsom? I'm asking in order to know if I can just
drop this version in yaws and have it seamlessly work.

Best regards,

Ahmed Al-Issaei
