[lxml-dev] lxml 1.3.3 released

Hi all, I just released lxml 1.3.3 to cheeseshop. This is mainly a bug-fix release for the stable 1.3 series. Changelog follows. Have fun, Stefan 1.3.3 (2007-07-26) ================== Features added -------------- * ElementTree compatible parser ETCompatXMLParser strips processing instructions and comments while parsing XML * Parsers now support stripping PIs (keyword argument 'remove_pis') * etree.fromstring() now supports parsing both HTML and XML, depending on the parser you pass. * Support base_url keyword argument in HTML() and XML() Bugs fixed ---------- * Parsing from Python Unicode strings failed on some platforms * Element() did not raise an exception on tag names containing ':' * Element.getiterator(tag) did not accept Comment and ProcessingInstruction as tags. It also accepts Element now.

When can we expect a binary distribution of 1.3.3 for windows?
Windows builds of lxml require a) MS Windows and b) a MS compiler, two reasons why I can't do them myself but rely on our official Windows maintainer Sidnei. It sometimes takes a couple of days until binary builds become available, so I can only ask you to wait a little longer - or to bug Sidnei yourself :) Stefan

Hi, I apologize if I came across as impatient. I meant no rush; I'm simply just wondering. I have an MS compiler (msvc8), but I don't think the build process supports it. I've actually tried making the binaries for windows myself at one point and I couldn't do it. It's been a while so I don't remember exactly what the problem was. However, I do appreciate your reply. Take care. On 7/30/07, Stefan Behnel <stefan_ml@behnel.de> wrote:

Hey there, Sorry for the delay, I was taking a short vacation in LA, just arrived in Houston now. I've built 1.3.3 for Python 2.4 and 2.5 and uploaded them to the cheeseshop. -- Sidnei da Silva Enfold Systems http://enfoldsystems.com Fax +1 832 201 8856 Office +1 713 942 2377 Ext 214
