The Element type is a simple but flexible container object, designed to store hierarchical data structures, such as simplified XML infosets, in memory. The ElementTree package provides a Python implementation of this type, plus code to serialize element trees to and from XML files.
ElementTree 1.2.2 is 1.2.1 plus an improved version of the HTML parser, backported from the 1.3 development branch. The new parser supports arbitrary character data encodings, and properly handles documents that mixes non-ASCII character data with non-ASCII character references and entities.
