XML: People
Continuing with the theme…
There is the bitterly smart Fredrik Lundh and his excellent ElementTree (which will be in Python 2.5) “it makes XML documents look like a bunch of nested lists”. I find the iterparse function interesting. (Of course someone as made a similar python interface but with all libxml2’s functionality and compliance).
Another figure is the fatherly Uche Ogbuji who is heavily involved with the 4suite™ “platform for XML and RDF processing” which is built on by the Amara XML toolkit. Very pythonic yet very concerned about the XML-Specs it would seem.
I should mention the bearded Tim Bray. He gives me hope, but not only that – he contributed to the XML standard (and the excellent Atom standard) and has ‘recently’ written a nice C library for generating XML called Genx. It seems Genx is pretty much feature complete, which is cool (because that means handling UTF-8 and namespaces ‘well’).
