[Python-Dev] Deprecated xmllib module (original) (raw)

Statements like this are pretty common, but there's no evidence (that I've ever seen pointed to) that someone has measured how many people want modules for X.

I almost didn't send this in, because I figured someone would have to argue with it.

If there are that many people that want (e.g.) a CSS parser, wouldn't there be a 3rd party one that everyone is using that could be proposed for addition into the standard library?

As far as I can tell, there are no CSS or XML 1.1 parsers for Python, period.
