[gdome]ANNOUNCE: gdome2-0.8.1

[Paolo Casarini <paolo casarini org>]

Hello guys!

   This announce comes with at least four month of late...

   The gdome2 release 0.8.1 codename "Bagheera2" is out!!
   
* News

  + Linked by the default to the new version of glib: glib2.
  + The use of the old version of glib is still possible setting to
'yes' the enable-glib-1 flag.
  
* Description:

  gdome2 is meant to be an easy to use, fast, light-weight DOM Level 2
  implementation library for the C programming language. It aims at
  standard compliance and it relies on libxml2.
  A DOM Implementation makes a XML or a HTML document available for
  processing and traversal of a XML document by means of a standard set
  of interfaces.
  Although gdome2 has been written as part of the GNOME project, it can
  be used stand-alone. One of its main strenghts is that wrappers for
  other programming languages can be easily written on top of it (and,
  for the most part, they can be generated automatically thanks to the
  uniformity of DOM interfaces) so to make it quickly available to a
  wide range of users. 

* Features

  - Supports the following DOM Level 2 modules:
    - "Core";
    - "XML";
    - "Events";
    - "MutationEvents".

  - Partially supports the following DOM Level 3 modules:
    - "XPath".
    
  - Exports an object oriented interface.
  - Provides a reference counting system that is responsible of all
    memory management issues.
