"Python & XML - Jones and Drake" is a good source. "Python Cookbook -
Martelli and Ascher" contains some info.

You can always do a google search.

What continues to confuse me is what exactly a standard Python
distribution contains and what it does not (in terms of XML).

Since my needs are quite simple, however, I'm not sure I really need to
know.
