XMLisp is great IMHO, though it is probably overkill if you just want
to spit out some xml, since it provides a full XML-CLOS mapping (in
both directions), of which you can customize almost every aspect. I've
used it to code an XML-based widget DSL for my toy web framework, and
it works like a charm with very little coding. I slightly modified it
to allow a kind of customization the authors hadn't provided, and it
took very little effort despite I hadn't studied XMLisp code in great
detail. Definitely, it's a great library, kudos to the authors!

The macros I created for openAIR should be generally useful for
creating objects that need to be serialized to XML. For example, here
is the definition for defining an html form...
(defhtml form ()
()
(:attrs form
:action (:-method :method) :enctype
:accept :name :onsubmit
:onreset :accept-charset))
This expands to create a form class and a utility macro to create an
instance of it. Something like....
(progn
(defmodel form (family html)
(action ..)
(method ..))
(defmacro mk-form
...))
..so that creating instances of these is as easy as...
(mk-form ()
(mk-input (:-type "text"))
(mk-input ...))
(provided you've done the defhtml for the input tag too).
The family superclass you see there is Kenny's way of creating a
hierarchy of objects. He has a bunch of utility macros that search up/
down and around family trees which is exactly what you need when
dealing with XML.
A generic function xhtml returns the actual markup represented by
these objects. Since they're all part of Kenny's family framework,
you just recursively collect the xhtml slots to get the xml output for
the entire tree of objects.
I've had experience writing XML schema's using the W3C schema language
and Relax NG but this is the most painless approach I've found so far
and the best thing is, the schema itself defines the object model.
It may be a little OTT unless you're dealing with a complex/large XML
model but its definitely worth a look. Check out the defhtml macro in
the file macros.lisp at

Any hope of a new release for me to try to work into the ECLM 2008
Kennynote Address on Sunday? I already have a nice gee whiz finish, but
OpenAIR would really take it to eleven.
Oh, btw, can one push an update to the client? ie, If the bit running on
the server sees something happen (if only the system clock move forward)
can it decide to show something new on the client by sending over some
xhtml? Or does one have to wait for the user to do something leading to
a refresh?

I'm afraid not. I've been swamped with "real work" this week and
haven't had any time to work on openAIR. Sorry.

In theory yes but it is pretty hard. The server tells the client to
keep the connection open and then sends new info as it is generated.
This info is buffered in a js variable which is polled on the client
for changes. You have to jump through hoops to make this work in IE.
There are some proprietary solutions out there so it must be possible
but I'm not sure how they do it.

This is unacceptable. I suppose next you are going to tell me you are
spending time socializing with friends and family.
