The obvious alternative, now that ElementTree is in the standard library, is its high-powered, compatible cousin, lxml. We used lxml to good effect, including its RelaxNG schema handling. It's fairly simple to use, arguably more so than 4Suite. I didn't do a feature comparison between 4Suite and lxml, so I don't know whether it has all the features needed by rdflib. -- Nicola Larosa - http://www.tekNico.net/ [Some] people [...] need a god (or God) outside themselves to feel like life is meaningful.
