-This library allows you to manipulate XML files.
+This library allows to manipulate XML files. It includes support 
+to read, modify and write XML and HTML files. There is DTDs support
+this includes parsing and validation even with complex DtDs, either
+at parse time or later once the document has been modified. The output
+can be a simple SAX stream or and in-memory DOM like representations.
+In this case one can use the built-in XPath and XPointer implementation
+to select subnodes or ranges. A flexible Input/Output mechanism is
+available, with existing HTTP and FTP modules and combined to an
+URI library.
