Now all we need is an XSL processor so we can transform XML documents to HTML etc. on the fly. Anybody know of a Python implementation of such a gizmo? -- Alexander Staubo http://www.mop.no/~alex/ "`This must be Thursday,' said Arthur to himself, sinking low over his beer, `I never could get the hang of Thursdays.'" --Douglas Adams, _The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy_

I am pleased to announce the first alpha release of XML Document. XML Document allows you to use xml objects in the Zope environment. You can create xml documents in Zope and leverage Zope to format, query, and manipulate xml.
http://www.zope.org/Download/XMLDocument
This release requires Zope 2.0x and the pyexpat parser which will be distributed with Zope come Zope 2.0b1. Until the Zope beta release you can get pyexpat from the Python xml-sig's xml package.
http://www.python.org/sigs/xml-sig
I'd love feedback on the functionality and design of this product. I think that it has a lot of potential. Also I encourage contributions on this project since I do not have a lot of time to spend on it myself.
Happy xml hacking!
-Amos
P.S. Install it like a normal Zope product, i.e. ungzip and untar in inside your Zope directory. If you are using the xml-sig pyexpat, Zope will expect to find it in xml.parsers.pyexpat.

There are a couple. We plan to integrate FourThought's 4XSL with Zope. I expect this will look like "XSL methods". Also node that *all* Zope objects support DOM at some level as of Zope 2.0 beta 1. So it will be possible to use DOM-aware tools (like 4XSL) with any Zope object. We used 4XSL to test out initial DOM integration.
