Bill,
  You don't say much about what you're interested in doing with the
HTML, and whether you need to be able HTML "as deployed" or valid
stuff.  Also, what about XHTML?
  If HTML as deployed and XHTML are relevant, you may want to look at
the HTMLParser module added to the standard library for Python 2.2.
That can certainly be extracted from the CVS if it looks interesting.
Basic documentation is available at:

    http://python.sourceforge.net/devel-docs/lib/module-HTMLParser.html

  It needs a little more high-level description, though!
