Pyasn1

--------------

- License updated to vanilla BSD 2-Clause to ease package use
(https://opensource.org/licenses/BSD-2-Clause).
- Test suite made discoverable by unittest/unittest2 discovery feature.
- Fix to decoder working on indefinite length substrate -- end-of-octets
marker is now detected by both tag and value. Otherwise zero values may
interfere with end-of-octets marker.
- Fix to decoder to fail in cases where tagFormat indicates inappropriate
format for the type (e.g. BOOLEAN is always PRIMITIVE, SET is always
CONSTRUCTED and OCTET STRING is either of the two)
- Fix to REAL type encoder to force primitive encoding form encoding.
- Fix to CHOICE decoder to handle explicitly tagged, indefinite length
mode encoding
- Fix to REAL type decoder to handle negative REAL values correctly. Test
case added.

--------------

- The compact (valueless) way of encoding zero INTEGERs introduced in
0.1.5 seems to fail miserably as the world is filled with broken
BER decoders. So we had to back off the *encoder* for a while.
There's still the IntegerEncoder.supportCompactZero flag which
enables compact encoding form whenever it evaluates to True.
- Report package version on debugging code initialization.

--------------

- Documentation updated and split into chapters to better match
web-site contents.
- Make prettyPrint() working for non-initialized pyasn1 data objects. It
used to throw an exception.
- Fix to encoder to produce empty-payload INTEGER values for zeros
- Fix to decoder to support empty-payload INTEGER and REAL values
- Fix to unit test suites imports to be able to run each from
their current directory

--------------

- Built-in codec debugging facility added
- Added some more checks to ObjectIdentifier BER encoder catching
posible 2^8 overflow condition by two leading sub-OIDs
- Implementations overriding the AbstractDecoder.valueDecoder method
changed to return the rest of substrate behind the item being processed
rather than the unprocessed substrate within the item (which is usually
empty).
- Decoder's recursiveFlag feature generalized as a user callback function
which is passed an uninitialized object recovered from substrate and
its uninterpreted payload.
- Catch inappropriate substrate type passed to decoder.
- Expose tagMap/typeMap/Decoder objects at DER decoder to uniform API.
- Obsolete __init__.MajorVersionId replaced with __init__.__version__
which is now in-sync with distutils.
- Package classifiers updated.
- The __init__.py's made non-empty (rumors are that they may be optimized
out by package managers).
- Bail out gracefully whenever Python version is older than 2.4.
- Fix to Real codec exponent encoding (should be in 2's complement form),
some more test cases added.
- Fix in Boolean truth testing built-in methods
- Fix to substrate underrun error handling at ObjectIdentifier BER decoder
- Fix to BER Boolean decoder that allows other pre-computed
values besides 0 and 1
- Fix to leading 0x80 octet handling in DER/CER/DER ObjectIdentifier decoder.

--------------

- Include class name into asn1 value constraint violation exception.
- Fix to OctetString.prettyOut() method that looses leading zero when
building hex string.

--------------

- Fix to __long__() to actually return longs on py2k
- Fix to OctetString.__str__() workings of a non-initialized object.
- Fix to quote initializer of OctetString.__repr__()
- Minor fix towards ObjectIdentifier.prettyIn() reliability
- ObjectIdentifier.__str__() is aliased to prettyPrint()
- Exlicit repr() calls replaced with '%r'
