-1 on this, as libxml2 is quite big, it would increase the PHP source by about 60%: File: php-4.2.1.tar.gz 3298 KB 05/13/2002 09:02:00 PM File: libxml2-2.4.17.tar.gz 1861 KB 03/08/2002 12:00:00 AM And I don't think it would be a good idea to bundle it even if it was small. A project like libxml changes so much with releases every two weeks that it would be a hell to keep upgrading the bundled library in order to have the latest version.
