Subject: [Announce] Gnosis (XML) Utils 1.0.3 This release contains some improvements to gnosis.xml.objectify: * Reorganized single-file module into subpackage with test/ and doc/ subpackages/directories. * Added caching of dynamic object creation. This leads to a considerable speedup where the same-named XML subnode occurs many times in the XML file (a frequent situation). * Allowed "objectification" of a DOM tree, as well as the prior filename/filehandle. Especially in Jython contexts, one is sometimes delivered a a pre-build DOM rather than raw XML. It may be obtained at: http://gnosis.cx/download/Gnosis_Utils-1.0.3.tar.gz The current release is always available as: http://gnosis.cx/download/Gnosis_Utils-current.tar.gz Try it out, have fun, send feedback!
