I don’t have any problems with you using MSXML, but the fact that turned up in a site advising against using Microsoft’s products is funny…

An "advertisement for Microsoft"? You have to already be using Microsoft to see that message, and it's just a warning about our use of XML. But it's true that the fact that the warning appears is a bug in the version of Plone that we're using, and we'll probably fix it soon. Hi Sunil,
