[ANN] updated 1.0.8 release of XMLPULL V1 API

[Aleksander Slominski <aslom@cs.indiana.edu>]

hi,

updated 1.0.8 version of XMLPULL API (and compatibility
tests) is available for download with following changes
to improve functionality and compatibility with XML info set
(added new functions) and one function (readText) replaced
by better version (called nextText) that has no ambiguity about
handling white spaces and is doing better job of checking for errors:.
* added new functions:
       getAttributeType(index)
       isAttributeDefault(index)
       setInput(InputStream is, String inputEncoding)
       getInputEncoding()
       nextText()
       nextTag()
* readText() function was removed, use nextText() instead
* procedure require() is changed - no longer will skip white space content

for details please see list of changes at:

the latest versions of kXML2 and XPP3/MXP passes the latest
compatibility tests and are available at locations specified at:
