  Description     : XML generation using Perl function calls

XML::Spice builds XML documents from nested Perl function calls rather than
string concatenation or a DOM. Each call names an element, with a hash
reference for attributes and further calls or strings for content, so the
structure of the document is the structure of the code.

Because elements are ordinary function calls, mismatched tags become syntax
errors, and the generated document is assembled lazily and stringified only
when used.

This module is a dependency of the Cassandane test suite shipped with
cyrus-imapd. Cassandane's 1383 tests cover the CalDAV, CardDAV, JMAP and Sieve
surface of the server; 35 suites currently cannot run in Debian because these
Perl modules are not packaged. See #1145447.

The package will be maintained under the umbrella of the Debian Perl Group.
