Sounds good. I'll give it a try. But one question: since we are moving away from pyxml to lxml, we can finally upgrade to Python 2.5. Is it possible to do that already? I'd rather not have -two- deps, if we can avoid it.
Go for it! Anything that depends on pyxml should be considered a bug now. I don't think there is anything that should keep us on 2.4 rather than 2.5 so go ahead and upgrade. If something breaks we'll just have to fix it. Please drop pyxml from the bundle and purge it from your memory. :-)
The python versionshipped on Mac OS X is only 2.4. Hence, upgrading to 2.5 would require all OS X users to reinstall python, which they already have on their system. From what I can see lxml requires only python >=2.3, so if there is no hard requirement for 2.5, it would really be nice to keep the extensions 2.4 compatible.
