- Updated to 2.0.4:
Features added:
- No new features

- Split documentation into subpackage python-lxml-doc
- Updated to 2.0.3:
Features added
 * soupparser.parse() allows passing keyword arguments on to
   BeautifulSoup.
 * fromstring() method in lxml.html.soupparser.

Bugs fixed:
* lxml.html.diff didn't treat empty tags properly (e.g., <br>).
* Handle entity replacements correctly in target parser.
* Crash when using iterparse() with XML Schema validation.
* The BeautifulSoup parser (soupparser.py) did not replace entities,
  which made them turn up in text content.
* Attribute assignment of custom PyTypes in objectify could fail
  to correctly serialise the value to a string.

Other changes
* lxml.html.ElementSoup was replaced by a new module lxml.html.soupparser
  with a more consistent API. The old module remains for
  compatibility with ElementTree's own ElementSoup module.
* Setting the XSLT_CONFIG and XML2_CONFIG environment variables at
  build time will let setup.py pick up the xml2-config and xslt-config
  scripts from the supplied path name.
* Passing --with-xml2-config=/path/to/xml2-config to setup.py will
  override the xml2-config script that is used to determine the
  C compiler options. The same applies for the --with-xslt-config option.

- Updated to 1.3.6:
Bugs fixed
 * Backported decref crash fix from 2.0
 * Well hidden free-while-in-use crash bug in ObjectPath

Other changes
 * The test suites now run gc.collect() in the tearDown() methods. 
   While this makes them take a lot longer to run, it also makes
   it easier to link a specific test to garbage collection problems
   that would otherwise appear in later tests.

Updated to 1.3.4:
Features added
* The ElementMaker in lxml.builder now accepts the keyword arguments
  namespace and nsmap to set a namespace and nsmap for the Elements
  it creates.
* The docinfo on ElementTree objects has new properties internalDTD
  and externalDTD that return a DTD object for the internal or external
  subset of the document respectively.
* Serialising an ElementTree now includes any internal DTD subsets
  that are part of the document, as well as comments and PIs that are
  siblings of the root node.

Bugs fixed
* Parsing with the no_network option could fail

Other changes
* lxml now raises a TagNameWarning about tag names containing ':' instead
  of an Error as 1.3.3 did. The reason is that a number of projects
  currently misuse the previous lack of tag name validation to generate
  namespace prefixes without declaring namespaces. Apart from the danger
  of generating broken XML this way, it also breaks most of the
  namespace-aware tools in XML, including XPath, XSLT and validation.
  lxml 1.3.x will continue to support this bug with a Warning, while lxml
  2.0 will be strict about well-formed tag names (not only regarding ':').
* Serialising an Element no longer includes its comment and PI siblings
  (only ElementTree serialisation includes them).

Updated to 1.3.3 with the following changes:
 Features added:
  * ElementTree compatible parser ETCompatXMLParser strips
    processing instructions and comments while parsing XML
  * Parsers now support stripping PIs (keyword argument 'remove_pis')
  * etree.fromstring() now supports parsing both HTML and XML,
    depending on the parser you pass
  * Support base_url keyword argument in HTML() and XML()
 
 Bugs fixed:
  * Parsing from Python Unicode strings failed on some platforms
  * Element() did not raise an exception on tag names containing ':'
  * Element.getiterator(tag) did not accept Comment and ProcessingInstruction
    as tags. It also accepts Element now.

Fri Jan 19 13:03:00 CET 2007 - toms@suse.de

Updated to 1.1.2 with the following changes:
 Features added:

  * Source distribution now ships with a patched Pyrex
  * New C-API function makeElement() to create new elements with text, tail, attributes and namespaces
  * Reuse original parser flags for XInclude
  * Simplified support for handling XSLT processing instructions
 
 Bugs fixed:
  * Parser resources were not freed before the next parser run
  * Open files and XML strings returned by Python resolvers were not closed/freed
  * Crash in the IDDict returned by XMLDTDID
  * Copying Comments and ProcessingInstructions failed
  * Memory leak for external URLs in _XSLTProcessingInstruction.parseXSL()
  * Memory leak when garbage collecting tailed root elements
  * HTML script/style content was not propagated to .text
  * Show text xincluded between text nodes correctly in .text and .tail
  * 'integer * objectify.StringElement' operation was not supported
