- Issue #1202: zlib.crc32 and zlib.adler32 now return an unsigned value.
+- Issue #719888: Updated tokenize to use a bytes API. generate_tokens has been
+ renamed tokenize and now works with bytes rather than strings. A new
+ detect_encoding function has been added for determining source file encoding
+ according to PEP-0263. Token sequences returned by tokenize always start
+ with an ENCODING token which specifies the encoding used to decode the file.
+ This token is used to encode the output of untokenize back to bytes.
