Hi Tony and James, I was in touch with Kristof Van Tomme - kristof at pronovix.com - you can contact him also directly at this address. He mentioned that this module might be a good starting point: http://drupal.org/project/xml_field He was also asking about what D6 functionality from Drupal 6 you were referring to, that is changes in Drupal 7? He also mentioned that his company can help if someone wants to sponsor the development of an Oxygen module for Drupal. You may contact him also directly if you want to follow up on this.

Hi Toni, James,
I am in Providence, RI for the DITA North America conference and there is someone here that works with Drupal trying to use it for DITA. I will get in touch with him today about the XML support in Drupal 7 and I will let you know if he has some hints on that.

Hi Tony,
We've often used oXygen to create content later imported into drupal (using Feeds module), but never using the JWS/applet version as a replacement for the editor. I know of a project where this could potentially be useful, and so would also be interested in hearing of anyone who had done this.
I realise that is just a longer version of a 'me too'.

I'm curious whether anybody has any experience in using Oxygen (either with Java Web Start or as an applet) for creating XML content -- 'entities' in Drupal-speak -- to be managed by a Drupal 7 CMS?
Creating a locked-down Oxygen JWS [2] or applet [3] distribution with a single framework and any required extra jars seems simple enough, but getting Drupal to handle XML as XML doesn't seem to be as well documented for Drupal 7 as it was for Drupal 6 [1], and getting content in and out of Drupal seems to only be well defined for its native node types. As such, I have no great expectation that it can be done but would be interested to hear if anyone has managed it.
