Experience

AskXML

https://github.com/kamac/AskXML
I developed an open-source module for Python that allows you to run SQL queries against XML documents. The idea was born when I was trying to work with StackExchange data dumps that were unsuitable for keeping in memory whole while simultaneously was also to slow to iterate over with the ElementTree XML API.
