switch from Nokogiri to Ox

I don't think this is a good idea. Rails has Nokogiri as dependency, so everybody requiring you're plugin in a rails app would then have two XML parsers in their app.

Well … Nokogiri is a bit difficult because of its use of C library, and I would not rely on Rails having it as a dependency forever. We're using Ox elsewhere and it's just fine.

I know. What about making a check if Nokogiri is defined, and require ox only if not.

[tomasc]

This is not urgent. We can keep this as is, and only eventually replace Nokogiri with something more lightweight.
