- passed to pybabel (:trac:`81`).
-- Keep the PO-Revision-Date if it is not the default value (:trac:`148`).

-Version 0.9.5
--------------
-
-(released on April 6th 2010)
-
-- Fixed the case where messages containing square brackets would break with
- an unpack error.
-- Backport of r467: Fuzzy matching regarding plurals should *NOT* be checked
- against len(message.id) because this is always 2, instead, it's should be
- checked against catalog.num_plurals (:trac:`212`).
-
-
-Version 0.9.4
--------------
-
-(released on August 25th 2008)
-
-- Currency symbol definitions that is defined with choice patterns in the
- CLDR data are no longer imported, so the symbol code will be used instead.
-- Fixed quarter support in date formatting.
-- Fixed a serious memory leak that was introduces by the support for CLDR
- aliases in 0.9.3 (:trac:`128`).
-- Locale modifiers such as "@euro" are now stripped from locale identifiers
- when parsing (:trac:`136`).
-- The system locales "C" and "POSIX" are now treated as aliases for
- "en_US_POSIX", for which the CLDR provides the appropriate data. Thanks to
- Manlio Perillo for the suggestion.
-- Fixed JavaScript extraction for regular expression literals (:trac:`138`)
- and concatenated strings.
-- The `Translation` class in `babel.support` can now manage catalogs with
- different message domains, and exposes the family of `d*gettext` functions
- (:trac:`137`).
-
-
-Version 0.9.3
--------------
-
-(released on July 9th 2008)
-
-- Fixed invalid message extraction methods causing an UnboundLocalError.
-- Extraction method specification can now use a dot instead of the colon to
- separate module and function name (:trac:`105`).
-- Fixed message catalog compilation for locales with more than two plural
- forms (:trac:`95`).
-- Fixed compilation of message catalogs for locales with more than two plural
- forms where the translations were empty (:trac:`97`).
-- The stripping of the comment tags in comments is optional now and
- is done for each line in a comment.
-- Added a JavaScript message extractor.
-- Updated to CLDR 1.6.
-- Fixed timezone calculations when formatting datetime and time values.
-- Added a `get_plural` function into the plurals module that returns the
- correct plural forms for a locale as tuple.
-- Added support for alias definitions in the CLDR data files, meaning that
- the chance for items missing in certain locales should be greatly reduced
- (:trac:`68`).
-
-
-Version 0.9.2
--------------
-
-(released on February 4th 2008)
-
-- Fixed catalogs' charset values not being recognized (:trac:`66`).
-- Numerous improvements to the default plural forms.
-- Fixed fuzzy matching when updating message catalogs (:trac:`82`).
-- Fixed bug in catalog updating, that in some cases pulled in translations
- from different catalogs based on the same template.
-- Location lines in PO files do no longer get wrapped at hyphens in file
- names (:trac:`79`).
-- Fixed division by zero error in catalog compilation on empty catalogs
- (:trac:`60`).
-
-
-Version 0.9.1
--------------
-
-(released on September 7th 2007)
-
-- Fixed catalog updating when a message is merged that was previously simple
- but now has a plural form, for example by moving from `gettext` to
- `ngettext`, or vice versa.
-- Fixed time formatting for 12 am and 12 pm.
-- Fixed output encoding of the `pybabel --list-locales` command.
-- MO files are now written in binary mode on windows (:trac:`61`).

-
-Version 0.9
------------
-
-(released on August 20th 2007)
-
-- The `new_catalog` distutils command has been renamed to `init_catalog` for
- consistency with the command-line frontend.
-- Added compilation of message catalogs to MO files (:trac:`21`).
-- Added updating of message catalogs from POT files (:trac:`22`).
-- Support for significant digits in number formatting.
-- Apply proper "banker's rounding" in number formatting in a cross-platform
- manner.
-- The number formatting functions now also work with numbers represented by
- Python `Decimal` objects (:trac:`53`).
-- Added extensible infrastructure for validating translation catalogs.
-- Fixed the extractor not filtering out messages that didn't validate against
- the keyword's specification (:trac:`39`).
-- Fixed the extractor raising an exception when encountering an empty string
- msgid. It now emits a warning to stderr.
-- Numerous Python message extractor fixes: it now handles nested function
- calls within a gettext function call correctly, uses the correct line number
- for multi-line function calls, and other small fixes (tickets :trac:`38` and
- :trac:`39`).
-- Improved support for detecting Python string formatting fields in message
- strings (:trac:`57`).
-- CLDR upgraded to the 1.5 release.
-- Improved timezone formatting.
-- Implemented scientific number formatting.
-- Added mechanism to lookup locales by alias, for cases where browsers insist
- on including only the language code in the `Accept-Language` header, and
- sometimes even the incorrect language code.
-
-
-Version 0.8.1
--------------
-
-(released on July 2nd 2007)
-
-- `default_locale()` would fail when the value of the `LANGUAGE` environment
- variable contained multiple language codes separated by colon, as is
- explicitly allowed by the GNU gettext tools. As the `default_locale()`
- function is called at the module level in some modules, this bug would
- completely break importing these modules on systems where `LANGUAGE` is set
- that way.
-- The character set specified in PO template files is now respected when
- creating new catalog files based on that template. This allows the use of
- characters outside the ASCII range in POT files (:trac:`17`).
-- The default ordering of messages in generated POT files, which is based on
- the order those messages are found when walking the source tree, is no
- longer subject to differences between platforms; directory and file names
- are now always sorted alphabetically.
-- The Python message extractor now respects the special encoding comment to be
- able to handle files containing non-ASCII characters (:trac:`23`).
-- Added ``N_`` (gettext noop) to the extractor's default keywords.
-- Made locale string parsing more robust, and also take the script part into
- account (:trac:`27`).
-- Added a function to list all locales for which locale data is available.
-- Added a command-line option to the `pybabel` command which prints out all
- available locales (:trac:`24`).
-- The name of the command-line script has been changed from just `babel` to
- `pybabel` to avoid a conflict with the OpenBabel project (:trac:`34`).
