It has a lot more functionality, for better or for worse; it's not clear yet what the costs and benefits are of having that functionality present. Expat seems to only be able to parse XML, not to write it, unless I'm missing something. Also, it's stream-oriented, and I suspect a non-stream-oriented parser will be easier for us to deal with for this project. (The input seems to be very short and straightforward.)

Expat has some intersting C++ bindings as well. Why not Xerces-C++ or Expat? Expat has some intersting C++ bindings as well.
