Our PyXML module will shortly be re-released for Python1.6 with a GPL
license, and a new name so as not to conflict with the existing PyXML
module.

We will happily discuss with you less-restrictive licensing terms for
[whatever PyXML becomes], and we would also be happy if someone ported 
XSV to run on top of some other validating Python XML interface -- the 
hooks are there (in layer.py).
