Take a look at lxml.objectify, it has a nicer API, especially if you are new to XML. It also handles loads of namespace issues under the hood, so that you don't get bothered with them. http://codespeak.net/lxml/objectify.html#element-access-through-object-attributes http://codespeak.net/lxml/objectify.html#namespace-handling You said "reviewing".
