Please move it to xml.scm.

Same as for java-xmlpull2: please use “install-jars”, if possible.

Please capitalize “Xml”.  How does this differ from java-xmlpull2?
Could you come up with a better description maybe?

(AIUI java-xmlpull2 is in maintenance mode, so it may be worth adding
that information to the package description.)

"file://LICENSE.txt").
