  The Expat XML Parser
Expat is an XML parser library written in C. It is a stream-oriented parser in which an application registers handlers for things the parser might find in the XML document (like start tags).
This project aims to maintain Expat for both current and future users while improving the API to allow more reliable and robust access from "scripting" languages such as Python and Perl.
The Simple C Expat Wrapper is a wrapper around Expat that provides a light-weight object model somewhat like a DOM.

When an XML document is then fed to the parser, the handler functions are called for the character data and markup in the XML document.
Expat doesn't support as many encodings as Python does, and its repertoire of encodings can't be extended; it supports UTF-8, UTF-16, ISO-8859-1 (Latin1), and ASCII.
Expat can optionally do XML namespace processing for you, enabled by providing a value for

 XML.com: Overview of Expat
Expat can be intimidating due to the many kinds of handlers and options you can set.
One of the problems with using expat is that isn't packaged as a library.
One pitfall that novice expat users are likely to fall into is that although expat may accept input in various encodings, the strings that it passes to the handlers are always encoded in UTF-8.

 CareerJournal | Generous Expat Packages Are a Relic of Boom Times
King and Spalding's dilemma -- to create incentives for their best performers to accept foreign assignments, while keeping costs at a reasonable level -- wasn't a concern for many companies in the booming 1990s, when many employers could afford to lavish generous expatriate-benefit packages upon their best and brightest.
During the past two to three years, however, many corporations were forced to cut costs to stay competitive, and fat expat packages were first on the chopping block.
If an expat moves abroad with his or her family, the U.S. employer often will pay for the children's schooling.

Since we live in the hills north of Faro away from the famous Algarvian beaches I found it very interesting - although the exact location is kept a secret to protect the privacy of her neighbours, I think that we live roughly half way between the Banks cottage and Faro.
There is a new blog for Expats at http://expat.drzeus.net which is far more flexible than this one, so I plan to contribute to that one and let this one sink into obsolescence.
I plan to maintain my three personal blogs about dining in Portugal on the Expat website at http://expat.silvert.org/food/, since these are very personal and often inaccurate comments for which I take full credit and blame, but John's blog is definitely the place to go!

 Expat Development Roadmap
A small group of extension authors were gathered by Paul Prescod in the hope that Expat could be formed into a more readily usable library for both direct use in C-language applications and indirect use from other languages.
The intent is that once Expat 2.0 is released, most of the development activity for this line will be maintenance, and will be driven by user-provided problem reports.
A new library may be added to the Expat package that provides a flexible architecture for defining new encodings, and provides a large range of common encodings.
