Bug#542918: ITP: libxml-treebuilder-perl -- Perl XML parser providing a tree of XML::Elements similar to HTML::Element



Package: wnpp
Severity: wishlist
Owner: Mikhail Gusarov <dottedmag@dottedmag.net>

* Package name    : libxml-treebuilder-perl
  Version         : 3.09
  Upstream Author : Sean M. Burke <sburke@cpan.org>
* URL             : http://search.cpan.org/dist/XML-TreeBuilder/
* License         : Perl (Artistic and GPL)
  Programming Lang: Perl
  Description     : Perl XML parser providing a tree of XML::Elements similar to HTML::Element

This module uses XML::Parser to make XML document trees constructed of XML::Element objects
(and XML::Element is a subclass of HTML::Element adapted for XML).  XML::TreeBuilder is meant
particularly for people who are used to the HTML::TreeBuilder / HTML::Element interface to
document trees, and who don't want to learn some other document interface like XML::Twig or
XML::DOM.

== 

Note: this my ITP and previous ones are prerequisites to package Publican[1], I'd be asking myself
"Why another hand-written XML parser?" if it was not required by application.
