I was just saying that instead of using XMLEncoder/XMLDecoder which are
a nightmare to maintain you should consider supporting XStream instead.
The major benefit of XStream is zero configuration. You can
encode/decode absolutely any object. The downside is a slight
performance hit. I have used both mechanisms in my lifetime, and I'd
never go back to XMLEncoder if I had the choice.
