An at least somewhat informed +1 from me. The ElementTree API is a

Let's deprecate the NiCad batteries and try to guide users toward the

I stripped my name from the quoted context because I didn't say this.


I use xml.dom.minidom for XML canonization and convertion:

Do you mean "canonicalisation"? I.e. C14N? That's not what the code below is doing, not at all.


doc = xml.dom.minidom.parse( io.BytesIO( data0 ) )
encoding = forceEncoding or doc.encoding or str( 'UTF-8' )
writer = io.BytesIO()
writer = codecs.getwriter( encoding )( writer, 'xmlcharrefreplace' )
doc.writexml( writer, encoding = encoding )
data = writer.getvalue()

How to do this with xml.etree.ElementTree?

In Python 2.7/3.2, ElementTree has support for C14N serialisation, just pass the option method="c14n".
