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

:Released: 2015-01-14
:Maintainer: Ben Finney <ben+python@benfinney.id.au>

* Break circular import dependency for ‘setup.py’.

* Specify versions of Python supported, as trove classifiers.

* Update copyright notices.
* Add editor hints for most files.
* Distinguish continuation-line indentation versus block indentation.

* Use unicode literals by default, specifying bytes where necessary.
