How does one create a struct in Go for nested xml content? Imagine this xml:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <people> <person> <name>Pers1</name> <gender>female</gender> <somethings> <thing>123</thing> <thing>321</thing> </somethings> </person> <person> <name>Pers2</name> <gender>male</gender> <somethings> <thing>111</thing> <thing>222</thing> <thing>333</thing> </somethings> </person> <person> <name>Pers3</name> <gender>female</gender> <somethings> <thing>978</thing> </somethings> </person> <!-- And so on... --> </people>

I'm able to load the data but I can't manage to create a struct for this kind of nested data. Every trick you have would be good to know!

Have a good day! :)
