I realize the source is available (having had to use it way too many time in the past, not just with ET), but that does not justify omission from the docs. However the point is moot since (as you say) it seems the Python-distributed ET doesn't contain the c14n feature. > I can see that it only has the > hooks.

Right, but many times I try to avoid external dependencies when feasible. Thanks for the clarifications. -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
