python-lxml - ElementTree-like Python bindings for libxml2 and libxslt

Website: http://lxml.de
License: BSD
Vendor: Fedora Project
Description:
lxml provides a Python binding to the libxslt and libxml2 libraries.
It follows the ElementTree API as much as possible in order to provide
a more Pythonic interface to libxml2 and libxslt than the default
bindings.  In particular, lxml deals with Python Unicode strings
rather than encoded UTF-8 and handles memory management automatically,
unlike the default bindings.

- ==================

- Features added
- --------------
-
- * The methods ``apply_templates()`` and ``process_children()`` of XSLT

-
- Bugs fixed
- ----------
-
- * When moving Elements to another tree, the namespace cleanup mechanism
-   no longer drops namespace prefixes from attributes for which it finds
-   a default namespace declaration, to prevent them from appearing as
-   unnamespaced attributes after serialisation.
-
- * Returning non-type objects from a custom class lookup method could lead
-   to a crash.
-
- * Instantiating and using subtypes of Comments and ProcessingInstructions
-   crashed.
