[Query2XML-Announce] Query2XML 1.7.2 released!

[Lukas F. <luk...@lu...>]

I am proud to announce a new stable release of XML_Query2XML: 1.7.2 is now
available!

Project home page: http://query2xml.sourceforge.net
PEAR project home page: http://pear.php.net/package/XML_Query2XML

Query2XML allows you to transform the records retrieved with one or more SQL
SELECT queries into XML data. Very simple to highly complex transformations
are supported. It was written with performance in mind and can handle large
amounts of data. No XSLT needed.

This stable release implements the following changes:
* Bug #17724 fixed: avoiding split, using explode.
* XML_Query2XML::registerPrefix(): new method that allows
  you to register your own prefixes that can be used in
  all value specifications. unregisterPrefix() and
  unregisterAllPrefixes() allow you to unregister a
  particular or all prefixes (including default prefixes).
* Now comes with 244 unit tests. 

If there is still somebody upgrading from v0.6.x or v0.7.x, please consult
