[XML-SIG] Assistant trouble shooting 'ImportError: No module named dom.ext.reader'

[Hardison Leif]

Thanks for the suggestion Tim.

Right now, I'm evaluating my different options for working with this XML

those legit excuses to spend more time learning a language I've always
wanted to spend time with.

Maybe you should look at ElementTree or more specifically cElementTree,
Thiough it does have a different api/model
