changes were made:

wx.DC.DrawBitmap and wx.DC.Blit methods are able to correctly blend
the pixels in the image with partially transparent alpha values.

In addition to installing wxPython into a "versioned" subdirectory of
site-packages, a file named `wx.pth` is optionally installed that will
contain the name of the versioned subdirectory. This will cause that
subdirectory to be automatically added to the sys.path and so doing an

"optionally" above because that is how you can control which install
of wxPython is the default one. Which ever version installs the
wx.pth file will be the one that is imported with a plain "import wx"
method described in the next paragraph.
Finally, a new module named wxversion.py is installed to the

runtime so your applications can select which version of wxPython they
would like to to have imported. You use it like this::

import wx

version of wxPython that supports this, but there will be.
