Python 3.3 is no yet available in Debian unstable nor in experimental.
So I made a try with Python 3.2 - which looks good (just an XFAIL: Test-Post2, 
but I didnt go into the details). Why not adjust the requirements to Python 
3.2 (many distributions are derived from Debian or are somewhat conservative 
like e.g. SuSE and Redhat) ?

I personally find XML hard to read, especially when mixed with HTML.
But I guess, if you create a DTD, we could use one of these XML editors... 
these also automatically check (or make shure) the validity of the XML code.

Keep up the good work !
