+<p>wxMSW: Patch #1197009, better refreshes when windows are moved and
+resized.</p>
+<p>wxMSW: Patch #1197468. Keeps track of pending size/position changes
+in case there is more than one adjustment for a window in a single
+DeferWindowPos set, then the pending values can be used for defaults
+instead of current values.</p>
+<p>Fixed the typemap that converts a Python list of strings to a

+<p>wx.stc.StyledTextCtrl: Added the following methods for alternate ways
+to set and fetch text from the document buffer. They work similarly
+to the existing methods of the same name, except that they don't go
+through the same string/unicode <--> wxString conversions. The "Raw"
+methods will do no conversions at all and in a unicode build of
+wxPython the strings will be in the utf-8 encoding and in an ansi
+build no assumption is made about the encoding. The "UTF8" functions
+will attempt to always get/set utf-8 text, which it will always be
+able to do in a unicode build, and in an ansi build it will depend on
+the content of the utf-8 used being compatible with the current
+encoding, (you'll get an exception otherwise.)</p>

+<p>OGL patch from Shane Holloway:</p>
+<blockquote>
+<p>Two simple problems found in the new python ogl code. First is
+the patch for _canvas.py. Essentially:</p>
+<pre class="literal-block">
+dx = abs(dc.LogicalToDeviceX(x - self._firstDragX))
+dy = abs(dc.LogicalToDeviceY(y - self._firstDragY))
+</pre>
+<p>was incorrect because (x,y) and (self._firstDragX,
+self._firstDragY) are both already in Logical coordinates.
+Therefore the difference between the two is also in logical
+coordinates, and the conversion call is an error. This bug
+surfaces when you have OGL on a scrollwin, and you are far from
+the origin of the canvas.</p>
+<p>The second change in _composit.py basically removes the assumption
+that the child is in both self._children and self._divisions.
+Causes many problems when it's not. ;)</p>
+</blockquote>
+<p>Fixed GetSaveData and SetSaveData in wx.lib.multisash to not depend on
+the default way that class objectss are converted to strings.</p>
+<p>Fixed problem in StyledTextCtrl.Set[HV]ScrollBar that could leave the
+internal scrollbar visible.</p>
+<p>Added wx.StandardPaths which provides methods for determining standard
+system paths for each platform.</p>
+<p>wxMSW: The window background is now only erased by default if the
+background colour or background mode has been changed. This better
+allows the default system themed behaviour to show through for
+uncustomized windows. Explicit support added for using the correct
+theme texture for wx.Notebook pages and their children.</p>
+<p>wx.Image: Added support for alpha channels in interpolated and
+non-interpolated image rotation. Added ConvertAlphaToMask helper
+method for turning shades of grey into shades of alpha and a colour.</p>
+<p>wxGTK2: Reimplemented DoDrawRotatedText() by way of a rotation of an
+alpha blended text bitmap. It would be better if Pango could draw
+directly into an wxImage (as FreeType can,) but that is for later...</p>
+<p>Added wrappers and a demo for the wx.MediaCtrl class, which can play
+various forms of audio/video media using native codecs install on the
+system. So far it is only implemented for Windows and OSX.</p>
+<p>wxGTK: Patch applied for Freeze()/Thaw() for wxTextCtrtl.</p>
+<p>Added "gravity" for splitter window (patch 1046105). Gravity is a
+floating-point factor between 0.0 and 1.0 which controls position of
+sash while resizing the wx.SplitterWindow. The gravity specifies
+how much the left/top window will grow while resizing.</p>
+<p>wxMSW: wx.Slider's C++ implementation rewritten to be more
+maintainable and hopefully less buggy. The position of the labels has
+also been changed in order to better comply with Microsoft's examples
+of how to use the control.</p>
+<p>wxMSW: Fix wx.TreeCtrl to end label editing if the control loses
+focus (a slightly modified patch 1084592.)</p>
+<p>Added wx.EXEC_NODISABLE flag for wx.Execute, which will prevent all
+the app's windows being disabled while a synchronous child process is
+running.</p>
+<p>wxMSW: Much work to correct painting (or leaving transparent) of
+control backgrounds, properly using background themes on XP, etc.</p>
+<p>Fixed a circular reference problem with wx.Timer. It will now
+completely cleanup after itself when the last reference to the timer
+is removed. If you were previously using timer.Destroy() to cleanup
+your timers it will no longer work. Instead you should hold a
+reference to the timer and then del the reference when you are
+finished with the timer.</p>
+<p>Updated to 1.3.24 of SWIG. All of my big patches have been applied to
+the main SWIG source tree, but unfortunatly there were also some bugs
+added that affected the wxPython build and a few details in my
+original patch were changed/removed, so we are still not free of
+patches. A new patch for SWIG is located in the wxPython/SWIG
+directory of the wxPython source tree. SWIG 1.3.24 plus this patch
+should be used by anyone who is making custom modifications to
+wxPython's .i files, or building their own extension modules or
+etc. that need to interact with the wxPython swigged types. For the
+morbidly curious, here are a few more details:</p>
+<blockquote>
+<ul class="simple">
+<li>Since it is now possible easily and simply share the SWIG type
+tables across modules I reverted to always using the stock SWIG
+runtime instead of my slightly hacked up version of it exported
+via the wxPython C API.</li>
+<li>The %name directive is now deprecated so I replaced most uses of
+it with a custom %Rename macro that uses %rename internally.
+These will evetually need to be replaced with a DocDecl macro
+when docstrings are added for those items.</li>
+<li>The "this" attribute of all SWIGged classes is no longer a
+string containing a "swigified pointer", but rather a custom
+built-in type that holds the real C pointer to the object and
+the type info. It can be converted to a string like the old
+value using str() or to the long integer value of the pointer
+using long().</li>
+</ul>
+</blockquote>
+<p>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 <cite>locale.getdefaultlocale()[1]</cite> when wxPython is first
+imported. Please see <a class="reference" href="http://www.alanwood.net/demos/charsetdiffs.html">http://www.alanwood.net/demos/charsetdiffs.html</a>
+for information on the differences between the common latin/roman
+encodings.</p>
+<p>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 <cite>wx.Button</cite>
+to the sizer, and be sure to create the buttons using the standard
+ID's. Then call <cite>Realize</cite> and the sizer will take care of the rest.</p>
+<p>wxMSW Toolbar: pass correct tool id (and not always -1) to the
+EVT_TOOL_RCLICKED handler</p>
+<p>wxGTK: Applied patch for combo box SELECTED events (no longer get
+lots of surplus events)</p>
+<p>wxGTK: Applied patch for proper menu highlight colour detection in

+<p>wxGTK: Commited scrollbar patch #1093339 which sends lineup, linedown

+<p>wxGTK: Applied patch #1102789 which solved conflicts between wxWidgets
+and GTK+'s context menu code.</p>
+<p>wxGTK: Applied patch #1100327 for correct feedback from DND actions
+(not all actions are allowed).</p>
+<p>Fixed memory leak in wxGrid::UpdateAttr[Rows][Or][Cols] (patch 1104355)</p>
+<p>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.</p>
+<p>Added wx.SL_INVERSE style which will cause wx.Slider to invert the min
+and max ends of the slider.</p>
+<p>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.</p>

+<p>wxMac: Fixed a long-standing issue where wxSlider controls with a

+class.</p>
+<p>The default DoGetBestSize now includes the difference (if any) between

+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

+<p>Added modules from Peter Yared and Morgan Hua that implement the wx

+<p>wxGTK wx.Button.SetLabel no longer invalidates/resets the font.</p>
+<p>wx.Sizer.AddWindow, AddSizer, AddSpacer and etc. have now been
+undeprecated at the request of Riaan Booysen, the Boa Constructor team
+lead. Boa needs them to help keep track of what kind of item is being
+managed by the sizer. They are now just simple compatibility aliases
+for Add, and etc.</p>
+<p>The old C++ version of the OGL lib is no longer built by default. Use
+the Python version in the wx.lib.ogl package instead.</p>
+<p>The wx.iewin module is no longer built by default. You can use the
+wx.lib.iewin version instead.</p>
+<p>Fixed wx.BufferedPaintDC for scrolled windows to work whether the

+<p>It is now possible to create "stock" buttons. Basically this means
+that you only have to provide one of the stock IDs (and either an
+empty label or a label that matches the stock label) when creating the
+button and wxWidgets will choose the stock label to go with it
+automatically. Additionally on the platforms that have a native
+concept of a stock button (currently only GTK2) then the native stock
+button will be used. For example, the following will result in a
+button with "Cancel" as the label and if run on wxGTK2 then there will
+also be an image of a red X:</p>
+<pre class="literal-block">
+b = wx.Button(parent, wx.ID_CANCEL)

+<p>Removed my copy of distutils from the wxPython source tree. Now that
+I am no longer doing builds on Python 2.1 the newest distutils is no
+longer needed. (There is still one small bug in Python 2.2 distutils
+on win32, but it is easily worked around.) This sovles the problem of
+incorrect builds on some systems where the system installed distutils
+has been patched to behave slightly differently, for example SuSE on
+x86_64 or Chandler's build.</p>
+<p>Updated to SWIG 1.3.22 (plus my patch.) See wxPython/SWIG/README.txt
+in the source tree if you need to use SWIG when building your own copy
+of wxPython, or other extension modules that need to integrate with
+the wxPython modules.</p>

+<p>wxMSW: Make radiobutton tab behaviour the same on MSW as in standard

+button.</p>
+<p>Added limited support for wxEventLoop (you can't derive from a
+wx.PyEventLoop version yet...) Updated and moved the sample showing
+how to replace the MainLoop to samples/mainloop/mainloop.py.</p>
+<p>The C++ xrc lib has been moved out of contrib and into the core, so it
+is always built by default. wxPython's build has also changed
+accordingly and will build the xrc module as part of the core set of
+modules built by default. If you were axplicitly using BUILD_XRC then
+it will no longer be recognized as a build option, otherwise you
