The Python developpers are quite careful to keep the standard library small -- as larger software increase the maintenance burden. The Python runtime comes with some core XML support (sufficient to parse and process XML files). The xml-sig (XML Special Interest Group) has implemented additional XML processing packages: that is "PyXML". But, it never made it as a whole into the Python runtime library. And not "PyXML" is without maintainer.... -- Dieter _______________________________________________ XML-SIG maillist - XML-SIG@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/xml-sig
