[copy of web page is included here because some idiot wnpp maintainer decided six months ago that because he couldn't be bothered to look at the web site to obtain the info on it, he should delete the wnpp request] Uche Ogbuji: Amara XML Toolkit Amara XML toolkit is an open-source collection of Python tools for XML processing, not just tools that happen to be written in Python, but tools built from the ground up to use Python idioms and take advantage of the many advantages of Python over other programming languages. Amara builds on 4Suite, but whereas 4Suite focuses more on literal implementation of XML standards in Python, Amara adds a much more Pythonic face to these capabilities. Amara provides tools you can trust to conform with XML standards without losing the familiar Python feel. The current stable version is 1.0. The current development version is 1.1.7. The development version has many performance and API improvements, but it is not quite as field-tested as the stable version. The components of Amara are: * Bindery: a data binding tool (fancy way of saying it's a very Pythonic XML API) * Scimitar: an implementation of the ISO Schematron schema language for XML, which converts Schematron files to Python scripts * domtools: A set of tools to augment Python DOMs * saxtools: A set of tools to make SAX easier to use in Python * Flextyper: an implementation of Jeni Tennison's Data Type Library Language (DTLL). Supports user-defined datatypes in Python for XML processing. -- System Information: Debian Release: testing/unstable Architecture: i386 Kernel: Linux highfield 2.6.14-2-686 #1 Mon Nov 14 14:19:05 UTC 2005 i686 Locale: LANG=C, LC_CTYPE=C -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
