The \module{xml} package, as in earlier +versions, provides an interface that will provide the PyXML +implementation of the interfaces when available, and the standard +library implementation if not. Applications that can use either the +PyXML implementation or the standard library's implementation may +continue to make imports from the \module{xml} package; applications +that want to only import the standard library's implementation can now +use the \module{xmlcore} package. + The documentation for the \module{xml.dom} and \module{xml.sax} packages are the definition of the Python bindings for the DOM and SAX interfaces. -- cgit v0.12
