Python Psi-Dev Parser?

Question

[Nicholas Mancuso]

Is there a parser in Python for the PSI-Dev protein standard? I need to parse some data from the MIPS dataset and have not been able to find a non-java parser.

Are there other known protein xml based parsers in BioPython that are available? (I apologize as I am new to proteomics).

There is a XML-schema for PSI-MI : http://psidev.sourceforge.net/mi/rel25/src/MIF25.xsd

There must be some tools for python to generate the classes from this XSD file: e.g. see http://stackoverflow.com/questions/1072853/how-to-convert-xsd-to-python-class
