Hi! I wonder if there is, or will be any Jython support of lxml? We are currently evaluating several possibilities to support several XML-features in Python and Jython together. This includes XPath, XSLT, XPointer. The last one is supported by libxml2 but I have not found any support inside lxml. Have I missed something? Will there be XPointer support in lxml in the future? About Jython: There is of course the possibility to use JNA to access the libxml2 library natively, but I do not comprehend how to access lxml from within Jython, since it is not a "normal" shared library, but a shared object created for CPython in Cython. Does anyone have any hint about that? Best regards Daniel
