This is the URL for expat 1.2, the last major production release of expat by James Clark.

In addition to fixing several bugs, this version adds support for parsing external Document Type Definitions (DTDs) and parameter entities, and is available under a more permissive license, the Massachusetts Institute of Technology License (MIT License, also known as X License) rather than the Mozilla Public License/Gnu General Public License (MPL/GPL).

Future development and maintenance, beginning with expat 2.0 beta, will be performed by a team led by Clark Cooper (maintainer of the Perl expat binding, XML::Parser), hosted on SourceForge (http://expat.sourceforge.net).

2.0 will add several new features, including better support for use as a shared library under Linux and other Unix variants.

Expat can be downloaded from ftp://ftp.jclark.com/pub/xml/expat.zip.

This is a production version.
