   Ok i have (finally!) released a new version:
  Downloads:
     ftp://rpmfind.net/pub/libxml/

  home page:
     http://xmlsoft.org/

  1.8.8 is mostly a comodity package for upgrading to libxml2 accoding to
        new instructions at http://xmlsoft.org/upgrade.html.
        It also fixes a nasty problem about & charref parsing
        it is intended to be binary compatible with 1.8.7, unless you're
        concerned about this you really should upgrade to 2.1.0 instead

  2.1.0 also ease the upgrade from libxml v1 to the recent version. it
        also contains numerous fixes and enhancements:
        - added xmlStopParser() to stop parsing (mostly untested)
        - improved a lot parsing speed when there is large CDATA blocs
        - includes XPath patches provided by Picdar Technology
        - tried to fix as much as possible DtD validation and namespace
          related problems
        - output to a given encoding has been added/tested
        - lot of various fixes

  I cannot guarantee that all patches and bug reports have been
integrated in this release, for example I didn't yet packaged the man
pages, but I have tried. If something is still missing, please report
it,

Daniel
