+Added SetDefaultPyEncoding and GetDefaultPyEncoding functions which
+will set/get the encoding used by wxPython to convert string or
+unicode objects to/from wxString objects.  Previously the default
+Python encoding was always used, but unless the user had tweaked their
+sitecustomize.py file it is always "ascii", which would result in
+errors if the strings contained character codes >= 128.
+SetDefaultPyEncoding will now allow you to control which encoding will
+be used to do those conversions.  The default encoding is set to the
+value of `locale.getdefaultlocale()[1]` when wxPython is first
+imported.  Please see http://www.alanwood.net/demos/charsetdiffs.html
+for information on the differences between the common latin/roman
+encodings.
+
+Added wxStdDialogButtonSizer, which is a a special sizer that knows
+how to order and position standard buttons in order to conform to the
+current platform's standards.  You simply need to add each `wx.Button`
+to the sizer, and be sure to create the buttons using the standard
+ID's.  Then call `Finalize` and the sizer will take care of the rest.
+
+wxMSW Toolbar: pass correct tool id (and not always -1) to the
+EVT_TOOL_RCLICKED handler
+
+wxGTK: Applied patch for combo box SELECTED events (no longer get
+lots of surplus events)
+
+wxGTK: Applied patch for proper menu highlight colour detection in
+wx.SystemSettings.
+
+wxGTK: Commited scrollbar patch #1093339 which sends lineup, linedown
+events based on intercepting the mouse down events.
+
+wxGTK: Applied patch #1102789 which solved conflicts between wxWidgets
+and GTK+'s context menu code.
+
+wxGTK: Applied patch #1100327 for correct feedback from DND actions
+(not all actions are allowed).
+
+Fixed memory leak in wxGrid::UpdateAttr[Rows][Or][Cols] (patch 1104355)
+
+For efficiency reasons, text controls no longer set the string for
+each text updated event, but rather query for the string value only
+when GetString is called from an event handler.
+
+Added wx.SL_INVERSE style which will cause wx.Slider to invert the min
+and max ends of the slider.
+
+Several patches applied, such as #1111174, #1110252 and others, that
+make the generic wx.TreeCtrl (used on wxGTK and wxMac) be more
+conistent with the wxMSW native wx.TreeCtrl.
+
+XRCed:
+    * Edit->Locate command (Ctrl-L) for quick selection of items.
+      Works with event-handling controls (buttons, text fields) but
+      not with labels/sizers.
+    * Some improvements: relative paths for files supplied as command-
+      line argument work correctly, notebook panels are highlighted
+      better.
+
+wxMac: Fixed a long-standing issue where wxSlider controls with a
+hardcoded size would misplace their labels behind the slider control.
+
+wx.HtmlListBox fixed so calling RefreshLine(s) will cause the data for
+that line to be refetched from the overridden methods in the derived
+class.
+
+The default DoGetBestSize now includes the difference (if any) between
+the client size and total size of the window, (such as the size of
+borders.)  Code that sets the client size using the best size, or that
+added extra space to sizers to compensate for this bug may need to be
+changed.
+
+Can suppress themed notebook pages with the wxNB_NOPAGETHEME style or
+setting system option msw.notebook.themed-background to 0.
+
+wxSyledTextCtrl updated to use Scintilla 1.62.
+
+Can now set the msw.window.no-clip-children system option to 1 to
+eliminate weird refresh behaviour (delays between a window being
+erased and repainted, giving a ghostly gradual-redraw effect). May be
+a temporary 'fix' until properly fixed before 2.6.
+
+wxMac: CoreGraphics  [[WRITE MORE HERE]]
+
+wxMac:  Toolbar is now more native looking with borderless toolbar
+buttons.  
+
+Added wx.DatePickerCtrl.
+
+wx.html.HtmlWindow now supports background images.
+
+Added wx.lib.gestures module from Daniel Pozmanter which supports
+using Mouse Gestures in an application.
