Hi,

lxml 2.0.6 is on PyPI. This is a bug fix only release for the stable 2.0 series.

As a long-standing threading problem was solved, updating is generally
recommended, although it should not affect currently working code. It should,
however, make it possible to run lxml threaded under mod_python and friends.
Feedback is welcome.

This release should also make the life easier for MacOS-X users.

Have fun,
Stefan


2.0.6 (2008-05-31)
Features added
Bugs fixed

    * Incorrect evaluation of el.find("tag[child]").
    * Windows build was broken.
    * Moving a subtree from a document created in one thread into a document
      of another thread could crash when the rest of the source document is
      deleted while the subtree is still in use.
    * Rare crash when serialising to a file object with certain encodings.

Other changes

    * lxml should now build without problems on MacOS-X.
