 """Universal feed parser
 
-Visit http://diveintomark.org/projects/feed_parser/ for the latest version
-
-Handles RSS 0.9x, RSS 1.0, RSS 2.0, Atom feeds
-
-Things it handles that choke other parsers:
-- bastard combinations of RSS 0.9x and RSS 1.0
-- illegal 8-bit XML characters
-- naked and/or invalid HTML in description
-- content:encoded, xhtml:body, fullitem
-- guid
-- elements in non-standard namespaces or non-default namespaces
-- multiple content items per entry (Atom)
-- multiple links per entry (Atom)
-
-Other features:
-- resolves relative URIs in some elements
-  - uses xml:base to define base URI
-  - uses URI of feed if no xml:base is given
-  - to control which elements are resolved, set _FeedParserMixin.can_be_relative_uri
-- resolves relative URIs within embedded markup
-  - to control which elements are resolved, set _FeedParserMixin.can_contain_relative_uris
-- sanitizes embedded markup in some elements
-  - to allow/disallow HTML elements, set _HTMLSanitizer.acceptable_elements
-  - to allow/disallow HTML attributes, set _HTMLSanitizer.acceptable_attributes
-  - to control which feed elements are sanitized, set _FeedParserMixin.can_contain_dangerous_markup
-  - to disable entirely (NOT RECOMMENDED), set _FeedParserMixin.can_contain_dangerous_markup = []
-- optionally tidies embedded markup
-  - fixes malformed HTML
-  - converts to XHTML
-  - converts character entities to numeric entities
-  - requires mxTidy <http://www.lemburg.com/files/python/mxTidy.html>

+    http_headers is a dictionary
+    xml_data is a raw string (not Unicode)
+    
+    This is so much trickier than it sounds, it's not even funny.
+    According to RFC 3023 ('XML Media Types'), if the HTTP Content-Type
+    is application/xml, application/*+xml,
+    application/xml-external-parsed-entity, or application/xml-dtd,
+    the encoding given in the charset parameter of the HTTP Content-Type
+    takes precedence over the encoding given in the XML prefix within the
+    document, and defaults to 'utf-8' if neither are specified.  But, if
+    the HTTP Content-Type is text/xml, text/*+xml, or
+    text/xml-external-parsed-entity, the encoding given in the XML prefix
+    within the document is ALWAYS IGNORED and only the encoding given in
+    the charset parameter of the HTTP Content-Type header should be
+    respected, and it defaults to 'us-ascii' if not specified.
+
+    Furthermore, discussion on the atom-syntax mailing list with the
+    author of RFC 3023 leads me to the conclusion that any document
+    served with a Content-Type of text/* and no charset parameter
+    must be treated as us-ascii.  (We now do this.)  And also that it
+    must always be flagged as non-well-formed.  (We now do this too.)
+    
+    If Content-Type is unspecified (input was local file or non-HTTP source)
+    or unrecognized (server just got it totally wrong), then go by the
+    encoding given in the XML prefix of the document and default to
+    'iso-8859-1' as per the HTTP specification (RFC 2616).
+    
+    Then, assuming we didn't find a character encoding in the HTTP headers
+    (and the HTTP Content-type allowed us to look in the body), we need
+    to sniff the first few bytes of the XML data and try to determine
+    whether the encoding is ASCII-compatible.  Section F of the XML
+    specification shows the way here:
+    http://www.w3.org/TR/REC-xml/#sec-guessing-no-ext-info
+
+    If the sniffed encoding is not ASCII-compatible, we need to make it
+    ASCII compatible so that we can sniff further into the XML declaration
+    to find the encoding attribute, which will tell us the true encoding.
+
+    Of course, none of this guarantees that we will be able to parse the
+    feed in the declared character encoding (assuming it was declared
+    correctly, which many are not).  CJKCodecs and iconv_codec help a lot;
+    you should definitely install them if you can.
