+ACE XML PARSER Framework README file
+
+* Character set
+
+ACE XML only deal with pure unicode encoding. I.e., ACE XML
+does not care about language specific encoding information.
+
+* SAX - The Simple API for XML
+
+ACE XML Parser interfaces follows the the design of SAX 2.0, which is
+a public domain specification for Java. The major difference between
+ACE XML Parser interfaces and SAX is that we added an reference of
+ACEXML_Env to every SAX method to accomodate platforms/compilers that
+don't support C++ exceptions. SAX is defined by David Megginson
