I didn’t know it was possible to build such nice closed-source programs.
Template Inheritence, Match Templates (kind of like XSLT’s), cElementTree support, a refined Python API, documentation…
Praise for Yahoo! as they launch an initial set of web style APIs.
Why I prefer ElementTree to “standard” DOM APIs and why it’s sometimes better than libxml2.
It’s not a robot thing.
Trying to figure out a way of providing XSLT-like template matching in Kid.
Why not extend XSLT to be easier instead of building a new template language?
Applying a chain of Python generators to achieve transformation of the XML infoset.
This release is all about documentation.
How I decided to build Kid – the simple, pythonic, XML-based template language.
From 2002: “On this latter specification, Sutor is emphatic: web services are defined by whether they are described in WSDL.”
Ahh, it turns out Håkon’s Wium Lie (Opera CTO and the guy who first proposed CSS) is on YesLogic’s board, makers of PrinceXML. I'm not sure how I missed that.
“In the remaining four templates, the translation from XSLT to Genshi markup is straightforward. And generally, the Genshi markup is both more compact and more powerful.”
“There are cases where you really do want that. There are cases when you don’t. There are cases where it’s half this, half that; cases, say, where you only want charset sniffing. There are cases where you want a pony. Not every document has the same g

Joe Gregorio’s second installment in his series on building RESTful applications shows us how to build a bookmark service kind of like del.icio.us. He nailed this one really nicely.

I love this paper…

..that rocks. Quite possible the only javascript treeview I'd ever consider using.
I know it says 0.2 in the URL and PRE-DRAFT in the title but this as normative as you can get with the 0.3 feeds in the wild.

atom:id will use URIs (hurray). markp explains why.

Oh God, please no. XML is not fun to program in!
“Syndicated feeds are wildly popular, but they're not a success for XML. XML on the Web has failed: miserably, utterly, and completely.”
