Finally found a decent looking #XML parser for #Rust. It has zero dependencies which should make it easy to port to #embedded environments other than that it uses std::collections::Hashmap. It should have a small size as well without all the bloat.
It supports utf16 le/be which almost no other Rust xml libraries support(the other ones kind of pisses me off because it is almost the first thing in the spec).

I will need to look at it a little more to see if its worth ditching my own library or not.
