I could be wrong, cause I am not an xml expert.  See can't even spell it
right.  but I am fairly
sure python supports xml natively.  Outside of Etree that is. so if all you
are doing is ingesting
xml.  I would look down that rabbit hole first, provided you are indeed
sticking to xml standards.

Either way, I believe we have discovered the topic for Octobers meeting.  So
Nice suggestion
Shawn.
