ANN: 4Suite XML 1.0rc4

[Uche Ogbuji]

Today we release 4Suite XML 1.0 release candidate 4, now available
from Sourceforge and ftp.4suite.org.

Thanks to all the testers, there are a number of important improvements
over 1.0rc3.  Please continue to help us test 4Suite to ensure a
high-quality 1.0 final release.

4Suite is split into three separate packages:

4Suite XML - XML, XPath, XSLT, related technologies and support libraries
4Suite RDF - RDF processing libraries and stand-alone DBMS
4Suite Repository - XML and RDF repository

This is a release of only the first component.

Highlights of changes in 4Suite XML since 1.0rc3

* Ft/Xml/Xslt/Exslt/DateTime.py: Implemented default values for
  right-truncated date/times in format-date() Missing values from
  left-truncated date/times are now replaced by ''

4Suite XML is a comprehensive library for XML processing.  It is
implemented in Python and C and supports XML (SAX-like and DOM-like),
XPath, XSLT, RELAX NG, XUpdate, XInclude, XPointer, and more.

We usually upload to Sourceforge, and will do so as soon as we can, but
server errors have made it impossible for us to complete the file release
so far.
