Well, that doesn't even look much like XML: it's not well-formed XML.
Somewhat more *well-formed*:
<haskell:module>
<Name>Html</Name>
<Version>0.1</Version>
<Description>
Main import module for the Html combinators</Description>
<License>
The Haskell Html Library is Copyright ©

Technology, 1999, All rights reserved, and is distributed as

is included in the distribution.</License>

<Restrictions>
This works with all Haskell 98 compilers.
</Restrictions>
<Tested>Hugs98, GHC 4.03</Tested>
</haskell:module>
But I have no idea what the DTD is, so I don't know if it
would be *valid*.
This assumes that there is an XML namespace called 'haskell'.
The 'a' tag is in XHTML (for backwards compatibility), but not
in XML itself in any way. So that would need to be replaced
with some XLink stuff (with which I'm not yet familiar).
Kind regards
