"""Core XML support for Python.
This package contains four sub-packages:
dom -- The W3C Document Object Model. This supports DOM Level 1 +
Namespaces.
parsers -- Python wrappers for XML parsers (currently only supports Expat).
sax -- The Simple API for XML, developed by XML-Dev, led by David
Megginson and ported to Python by Lars Marius Garshol. This
supports the SAX 2 API.
etree -- The ElementTree XML library. This is a subset of the full
ElementTree XML release.
