Lxml

=====================

Features added
--------------

* ``XSLT.strparam()`` class method to wrap quoted string parameters
that require escaping.

Bugs fixed
----------

* Memory leak in XPath evaluators.

* Crash when parsing indented XML in one thread and merging it with
other documents parsed in another thread.

* Setting the ``base`` attribute in ``lxml.objectify`` from a unicode
string failed.

* Fixes following changes in Python 3.0.1.

* Minor fixes for Python 3.

Other changes
-------------

* The global error log (which is copied into the exception log) is now
local to a thread, which fixes some race conditions.

* More robust error handling on serialisation.

=====================

Bugs fixed
----------

* Potential memory leak on exception handling. This was due to a
problem in Cython, not lxml itself.

* ``iter_links`` (and related link-rewriting functions) in
``lxml.html`` would interpret CSS like ``url("link")`` incorrectly
(treating the quotation marks as part of the link).

* Failing import on systems that have an ``io`` module.

=====================

Features added
--------------

* Allow ``lxml.html.diff.htmldiff`` to accept Element objects, not
just HTML strings.

Bugs fixed
----------

* Crash when using an XPath evaluator in multiple threads.

* Fixed missing whitespace before ``Link:...`` in ``lxml.html.diff``.

Other changes
-------------

* Export ``lxml.html.parse``.

======================

Features added
--------------

* Support for XSLT result tree fragments in XPath/XSLT extension
functions.

* QName objects have new properties ``namespace`` and ``localname``.

* New options for exclusive C14N and C14N without comments.

* Instantiating a custom Element classes creates a new Element.

Bugs fixed
----------

* XSLT didn't inherit the parse options of the input document.

* 0-bytes could slip through the API when used inside of Unicode
strings.

* With ``lxml.html.clean.autolink``, links with balanced parenthesis,
that end in a parenthesis, will be linked in their entirety (typical
with Wikipedia links).
