I'm adding section to the tutorial with a brief sampling of library offerings and some short examples of how to use them.

Cool!

I've avoided XML because it is a can of worms and because short examples don't do it justice. OTOH, it *is* the hot topic of the day and seems to be taking over the world one angle bracket at a time.

Actually, they usually travel in pairs. ;-) I would stay away from XML for this; there's too much there and how to pick one thing over another isn't always obvious even when someone explains it. -Fred -- Fred L. Drake, Jr. <fdrake at acm.org> PythonLabs at Zope Corporation
