Hi all ,

I just uploaded the first beta release of XPontus a free XML Editor.
There is an installer which has been tested on Linux, FreeBSD, and Windows XP.
An uninstaller is included. Feel free to download it.

I'd love to use an XML editor, but unfortunately I don't have any applications for it.

Any ideas on what to use an XML editor for?

You can use one for many reasons :
- Edit XML files
- Validate XML files
- Perform XSLT transformations (examples like kde or gnome users/developpers guide)
- and so on ...

I use it most of the time for XSLT Transformations to generate user documentation. The XSL code is then integrated for example in a Java or C++ application for users configurations, pdf on fly generation,etc..
