Version 2.15.0 of libxml2 has been released. Notable changes include the disabling of Python bindings by default, using Doxygen to generate API documentation, as well as bringing HTML serialization and handling of character encodings more in line with the HTML5 specification.

Nick Wellnhofer has also announced that he is stepping down as libxml2 maintainer, and Iván Chavero has volunteered to take over. LWN covered libxml2 in June.
