effbot.org proudly presents release 1.0.4 of the cElementTree library,
a fast and very efficient implementation of the ElementTree API, for
Python 2.1 and later.  On typical documents, it's 15-20 times faster
than the Python version of ElementTree, and uses 2-5 times less
memory.

cElementTree 1.0.4 is 1.0.2 plus 2.3.5/2.4.2 compatibility fixes for
copy/deepcopy (previously released as 1.0.3, as binaries only), new
"pi" and "comment" targets in XMLParser, plus the ability to link
against "pyexpat" instead of "expat" (this requires Python 2.5).

The library is available as C source code, and as Windows installers
for recent Python versions.  Get your copy here:

The cElementTree module uses some support functions from the standard
ElementTree library, and will not work properly without it.  If you haven't
installed it already, you can get it from:
