-===============
-
-xcb-proto provides the XML-XCB protocol descriptions that libxcb uses to
-generate the majority of its code and API. We provide them separately
-from libxcb to allow reuse by other projects, such as additional
-language bindings, protocol dissectors, or documentation generators.
-
-This separation between the XCB transport layer and the
-automatically-generated protocol layer also makes it far easier to write
-new extensions. With the Xlib infrastructure, client-side support for
-new extensions requires significant duplication of effort. With XCB and
-the XML-XCB protocol descriptions, client-side support for a new
-extension requires only an XML description of the extension, and not a
-single line of code.
-
-Python libraries: xcb-proto also contains language-independent Python
-libraries that are used to parse an XML description and create objects
-used by Python code generators in individual language bindings. These
-libraries are installed into $(prefix)/lib/pythonX.X/site-packages. If
-this location is not on your system's Python path, scripts that import
-them will fail with import errors. In this case you must add the
-install location to your Python path by creating a file with a `.pth'
-extension in a directory that _is_ on the Python path, and put the
-path to the install location in that file. For example, on my system
-there is a file named 'local.pth' in /usr/lib/python2.5/site-packages,
-which contains '/usr/local/lib/python2.5/site-packages'. Note that
-this is only necessary on machines where XCB is being built.
-
-Please report any issues you find to the freedesktop.org bug tracker,
-at:
-
- <https://bugs.freedesktop.org/enter_bug.cgi?product=XCB>
-
-Discussion about XCB occurs on the XCB mailing list:
-
- <mailto:xcb at lists.freedesktop.org>

-You can obtain the latest development versions of XCB using GIT.
