+with libxml2 is like the thrilling embrace of an exotic stranger." <a href="http://diveintomark.org/archives/2004/02/18/libxml2">Mark
+Pilgrim</a></p>
+ <p>Libxml2 is the XML C parser and toolkit developed for the Gnome project
+(but usable outside of the Gnome platform), it is free software available
+under the <a href="http://www.opensource.org/licenses/mit-license.html">MIT
+License</a>. XML itself is a metalanguage to design markup languages, i.e.
+text language where semantic and structure are added to the content using
+extra "markup" information enclosed between angle brackets. HTML is the most
+well-known markup language. Though the library is written in C <a href="python.html">a variety of language bindings</a> make it available in
+other environments.</p>
+ <p>Libxml2 is known to be very portable, the library should build and work
+without serious troubles on a variety of systems (Linux, Unix, Windows,
+CygWin, MacOS, MacOS X, RISC Os, OS/2, VMS, QNX, MVS, ...)</p>
+ <p>Libxml2 implements a number of existing standards related to markup
+languages:</p>

+ <p>In most cases libxml2 tries to implement the specifications in a
+relatively strictly compliant way. As of release 2.4.16, libxml2 passes all
+1800+ tests from the <a href="http://www.oasis-open.org/committees/xml-conformance/">OASIS XML Tests
+Suite</a>.</p>
+ <p>To some extent libxml2 provides support for the following additional
+specifications but doesn't claim to implement them completely:</p>
+ <ul><li>Document Object Model (DOM) <a href="http://www.w3.org/TR/DOM-Level-2-Core/">http://www.w3.org/TR/DOM-Level-2-Core/</a>
+ it doesn't implement the API itself, gdome2 does this on top of

+ <p>A partial implementation of <a href="http://www.w3.org/TR/2001/REC-xmlschema-1-20010502/">XML Schemas Part
