XOM API for Processing XML with Java

[Elliotte Rusty Harold <elharo AT metalab.unc.edu>]

I'm pleased to announce that I've posted version 1.0d9 of XOM in the 
usual location:

http://www.ibiblio.org/xml/XOM/

API changes and bug fixes in this release include:

Removed vestigial getNextSibling() and getPreviousSibling() methods 
from Document. These should have been removed earlier.

In Comment:
    Renamed check to checkValue
    Renamed setData to setValue
In ProcessingInstruction class:
    Renamed checkData to checkValue
    Renamed setData to setValue
In Text:
    Renamed check to checkValue
    Renamed setData to setValue
In ParentNode:
    Renamed checkRemove to checkRemoveChild for symmetry with checkInsertChild
    Moved these two methods down into Element:

public final void appendChild(String text)
public final void insertChild(String text, int position)

Fixed Builder bug that prevented parsing File objects whose filenames 
contained spaces and other non-URL legal characters

Fixed equals() method in Attribute.Type to work in mutliclassloader 
environments

Corrected usage instructions in samples programs to include the package name

Added checks on values of xml:base attributes that they are legal 
IRIs. Mainly this  involves checking the hex escaping.
