Hi all,

I just released lxml 2.2beta2 to PyPI.

http://pypi.python.org/pypi/lxml/2.2beta2

http://codespeak.net/lxml/dev/

This is an intermediate release before 2.2 'final'. It fixes a couple of
bugs in the last beta version. Most of the problems were already fixed in
2.1.5.

This release was built with Cython 0.11beta1. Although this Cython version
is currently considered 'stable enough', the final lxml 2.2 release will
wait for the final Cython 0.11 being released first.

Have fun!

Stefan


2.2beta2 (2009-01-25)
Bugs fixed

    * Potential memory leak on exception handling. This was due to a
      problem in Cython, not lxml itself.
    * iter_links (and related link-rewriting functions) in lxml.html would
      interpret CSS like url("link") incorrectly (treating the quotation
      marks as part of the link).
    * Failing import on systems that have an io module.
