 flag was added that will cause the sizer to use the old behaviour in
 that it will *not* call the window's methods to determine the new best
 size, instead the minsize that the window had when added to the sizer
-(or the size the window was created with) will always be used.

-Related to the above, when controls and some other window types are
-created either the size passed to the constructor, or their "best
-size" if an explicit size was not passed in, is set as the window's
-minimal size.  For non top-level windows that hasn't meant much in the
-past, but now the sizers are sensitive to the window's minimal size.
-The key point to understand here is that it is no longer the window's
-size it has when added to the sizer that matters, but its minimal
-size.  So you might have some issues to iron out if you create a
-control without a size and then set its size to something before
-adding it to the sizer.  Since it's minimal size is probably not the
-size you set then the sizer will appear to be misbehaving.  The fix is
-to either set the size when calling the window's constructor, or to
-reset the min size by calling SetSizeHints.  You can call SetSizeHints
-at anytime to change the minsize of a window, just call the sizer's
-Layout method to redistribute the controls as needed.

+It is now possible to change the tab traversal order of controls on a

+MoveBeforeInTabOrder methods of wx.Window.

+Applied (and heavily modified) a patch from Eugene
+<svip123@fastmail.fm> that allows the sample modules in the demo to be
+edited and reloaded, all from within the demo.  You can switch back
+and forth between the default and your edited version, and any errors
+ocurring upon the reload are reported on the Demo tab.
+
+Added a menu item in the demo that will open a PyShell window that has
+the app and demo frame preloaded in the namespace.  This is another
+good way to explore and play with the objects in the currently running
+sample.  For example, load the Button sample and then do the following
+in the PyShell::
+
+       >>> b = frame.demoPage.GetChildren()[0]
+       >>> for x in range(0, 500, 10):
