How do I learn about Python & XML?

It looks like the most recent book on the subject came out eight years
ago. Also, as I understand it, the PyXML library has been deprecated.

The books are still relavant, but you're welcome to try Google.
There's lxml and pyparsing, the latter of which has a digital booklet
by the author. There are also lots of tutorials online for the stdlib
way of doing things, which is typically using minidom. Here are a
couple of links to the 3rd party packages:

Much as I like to see new people latch onto pyparsing, XML is a pretty
well-trodden path, especially now that elementTree is part of the
standard Python lib (as of 2.5).
