I'm not sure but doesn't use HAppS kind of stripped down HaXml ? DrIft can derive HaXml instances automatically. Where is the problem doing using DrIft?

DrIFT is a preproxessor so it makes the build process more complex. I'd like to find a pure-haskell solution or a TH solution that doesn't require more build complexity.
You might want to look at the Data.Derive system. Basically it's a
giant library of helpers for writing TH-based derivations. It has a
few other cool features, like an automated guesser for sufficiently
regular classes. It's still in the cleanup-for-release stage, so any
questions should not be hesitated on!
