New submission from Magesh Kumar:
I am in the process of re.sub the tag <item type="dict"> </item> with empty
string from a xml output line.
If "re.I" is used, I am not able to remove the complete tag.

>>> a
'ype="str">false</latency_statistics_enabled><name
type="str">Default</name><aggregates type="list"><item type="dict"><aggregate
type="list"><item type="dict"><type type="str">MulticastClient</item><is'
>>> b = re.sub('\<\/?item(\s+type="dict")?\>', '', a, re.I)
>>> b
'ype="str">false</latency_statistics_enabled><name
type="str">Default</name><aggregates type="list"><aggregate type="list"><type
type="str">MulticastClient</item><is'
>>> b = re.sub('\<\/?item(\s+type="dict")?\>', '', a)
>>> b
'ype="str">false</latency_statistics_enabled><name
type="str">Default</name><aggregates type="list"><aggregate type="list"><type
type="str">MulticastClient<is'
