Yes, the documentation should be changed. I feel sorry that you've
wasted your time.

[issue1355] xml.dom refers to PyXML, which is no longer maintained

[whooey1830]

New submission from whooey1830:

http://docs.python.org/dev/library/xml.dom.html#module-xml.dom

"PyXML
Users that require a full-featured implementation of DOM should use
the PyXML package."

PyXML however is no longer maintained. Is it a wise idea to link to that
resource? Novice users might trust blindly, before finding out about the
restrictions they are going to face (maintainence, code fixes..) I
suggest adding at least information, that no code fixes are being done,
but documentation on the pyxml website is still updated (Thats how i've
understood their website. Please correct me if i am wrong. I'm feeling a
bit frustrated having spent time with a package, which is no longer
maintained, to be honest.)
