libxml-perl-0.05 is making it's way to CPAN archive sites.
libxml-perl is a collection of smaller Perl modules, scripts, and
documents for working with XML.  libxml-perl software works in
combination with XML::Parser, PerlSAX, XML::DOM, XML::Grove, and
others.

Significant changes since libxml-perl-0.04:

  * Major update to the PerlSAX specification:

    * Added an introduction

    * Added a ``Deviations from the Java version'' section

    * Re-added the `set_document_locator()' handler method

    * Added arguments to method synopses

    * Attributed most of the content to the SAX 1.0 Java
      Implementation documentation

  * XML::Handler::XMLWriter: a new PerlSAX handler for writing
    readable XML (in contrast to Canonical XML).  Similar to
    XML::Parser's Stream style

  * XML::Handler::Subs: a new PerlSAX handler base class for calling
    user-defined subs by element-name.  Similar to XML::Parser's Subs
    style

  * XML::PatAct::ToObjects: added a CopyAttributes option and a
    `-grove-contents' action
