 When you have to write a large program you often need to manage some 
-persistent data. A really elegant and widespread technique, to fulfill
-this goal, is to use XML based documents. And a really safe and robust
-way to treat XML files is to write a small program in CDuce. In this,
-section, we present a way to call CDuce functions from OCaml to
-couple the power of CDuce with the power of OCaml.
