[ANNOUNCEMENT] libxml2 2.9.4-1


The following packages have been uploaded to the Cygwin distribution:

* libxml2-2.9.4-1

Libxml2 is the XML C parser and toolkit developed for the GNOME project. 
XML itself is a metalanguage to design markup languages, i.e. text language 
where semantic and structure are added to the content using extra 'markup' 
information enclosed between angle brackets. HTML is the most well- known 
markup language. Though the library is written in C, a variety of language 
bindings make it available in other environments.
