 <p>Expat is an XML parser library written in C. It is a
 stream-oriented parser in which an application registers handlers for
 things the parser might find in the XML document (like start tags).

 <p>This project aims to maintain Expat for both current and future
 users while improving the API to allow more reliable and robust access
 from "scripting" languages such as Python and Perl.  We invite the
 community to participate on the mailing lists to help shape the future
 of Expat.</p>

   <dt><em>5 June 2007</em>,
       Expat 2.0.1 released.
     </dt>
   <dd><p>Release 2.0.1 of the Expat XML parser is a bugfix release
     resolving both code and build related issues. Changes include:
     <ul>
       <li>Fixed: The character data handler's calling of XML_StopParser()
         was not handled properly; if the parser was stopped and the handler
         set to NULL, the parser would segfault.</li>
       <li>Fixed: Expat failed on EBCDIC systems as it assumed some character
         constants to be ASCII encoded.</li>
       <li>Minor cleanups of the test harness.</li>
       <li>Minor fixes for xmlwf and example programs.</li>
       <li>Fixes and improvements for the Windows platform.
         New Windows directory structure.</li>
       <li>Build fixes for various platforms: HP-UX, Tru64, Solaris 9.</li>
       <li>Build fixes for Unix:<br/>
         - Refreshed config.sub/config.guess.<br/>
         - Support both, DESTDIR and INSTALL_ROOT, without relying on GNU-Make specific features.<br/>
         - Patched configure.in to work better with Intel compiler.<br/>
         - Fixes to Makefile.in to have make check work correctly.</li>
       <li>Added Open Watcom support.</li>
     </ul>

   <dt><em>11 January 2006</em>,
       Expat 2.0.0 released.
     </dt>
   <dd><p>Release 2.0.0 of the Expat XML parser is the end point of the
     1.95.X series of releases. The goal was to solidify and stabilize
     the implementation of the given API, to add desirable features as
     long as they fit with the API, and to keep the API backwards compatible
     if extensions were required. Changes include:
     <ul><li>Fixed headers for use from C++.</li>
       <li>XML_GetCurrentLineNumber() and  XML_GetCurrentColumnNumber()
         now return unsigned integers.</li>
       <li>Added XML_LARGE_SIZE switch to enable 64-bit integers for
         byte indexes and line/column numbers.</li>
       <li>Added support for AmigaOS.</li>
       <li>Some mostly minor bug fixes. SF issues include: 1006708,
         1021776, 1023646, 1114960, 1156398, 1221160, 1271642.</li>
