I kid, but only partially.
For myself, generally because I only become aware of the module, or
the module is only written after

Give lxml.objectify a try. It doesn't use DTDs, but does what you want.
Yes I should take the time to familiarise myself with the lxml API in

I'll look at the options. But anyway, only to give an example of the
configs I told, the ShoX project (at sourceforge.net) has xml as

Heh, mainly because I figure the config module will have a lot more

Does any, libxml2 or lxml, collect children like jdom does in java?
ListElement children = myRoot.getChildren();
Bah, that's *so* Java. ;)
ElementTree and lxml.etree do it like this:
children = list(myRoot)
lxml also supports XPath and lots

Yeah, you are right. I'm sorry but every time I read XML and
configuration in one sentence, I see the horror of TomCat or Shibboleth
