No "task force" someone needs to take on the task by themselves 
or with willing participants. We just know the current std.xml is 
not acceptable for the long term.

There is a xml library written by Michael who has shown interest 
in having it included into Phobos. Though I can't say it is on 
par with where we'd like std.xml to be.

My understanding is that it is for extra things that support D. 
But can not speak to its direction.
