-<h2>Features added</h2>
-<ul class="simple">
-<li><tt class="docutils literal">xmlfile(buffered=False)</tt> disables output buffering and flushes the

-A new method <tt class="docutils literal">xf.flush()</tt> can alternatively be used to explicitly flush

-creation. This can substantially speed up parsing of documents with many
-different IDs that are not used.</li>
-<li>The parser uses per-document hash tables for XML IDs. This reduces the
-load of the global parser dict and speeds up parsing for documents with
-many different IDs.</li>
-<li><tt class="docutils literal">ElementTree.getelementpath(element)</tt> returns a structural ElementPath
-expression for the given element, which can be used for lookups later.</li>

-in a different directory than libxslt.</li>
-<li>Eliminate crash condition in iteration when text nodes are changed.</li>
-<li>Passing 'None' to tostring() does not result in a segfault anymore,
-but an AssertionError.</li>
-<li>Some test fixes for Windows.</li>
-<li>Raise XMLSyntaxError and XPathSyntaxError instead of plain python
-syntax errors. This should be less confusing.</li>
-<li>Fixed error with uncaught exception in Pyrex code.</li>
-<li>Calling lxml.etree.fromstring('') throws XMLSyntaxError instead of a
-segfault.</li>
-<li>has_key() works on attrib. 'in' tests also work correctly on attrib.</li>

-<h2>Features added</h2>
-<ul class="simple">
-<li>parameters (XPath expressions) can be passed to XSLT using keyword
-parameters.</li>
-<li>Simple XInclude support. Calling the xinclude() method on a tree
-will process any XInclude statements in the document.</li>
-<li>XMLSchema support. Use the XMLSchema class or the convenience
-xmlschema() method on a tree to do XML Schema (XSD) validation.</li>
-<li>Added convenience xslt() method on tree. This is less efficient
-than the XSLT object, but makes it easier to write quick code.</li>
-<li>Added convenience relaxng() method on tree. This is less efficient
-than the RelaxNG object, but makes it easier to write quick code.</li>
-<li>Make it possible to use XPathEvaluator with elements as well. The
-XPathEvaluator in this case will retain the element so multiple
-XPath queries can be made against one element efficiently. This
-replaces the second argument to the .evaluate() method that existed
-previously.</li>
-<li>Allow registerNamespace() to be called on an XPathEvaluator, after
-creation, to add additional namespaces. Also allow registerNamespaces(),
-which does the same for a namespace dictionary.</li>
-<li>Add 'prefix' attribute to element to be able to read prefix information.
-This is entirely read-only.</li>
-<li>It is possible to supply an extra nsmap keyword parameter to
-the Element() and SubElement() constructors, which supplies a
-prefix to namespace URI mapping. This will create namespace
-prefix declarations on these elements and these prefixes will show up
-in XML serialization.</li>
-</ul>
-</div>
-<div class="section" id="id323">
-<h2>Bugs fixed</h2>
-<ul class="simple">
-<li>Killed yet another memory management related bug: trees created
-using newDoc would not get a libxml2-level dictionary, which caused
-problems when deallocating these documents later if they contained a
-node that came from a document with a dictionary.</li>
-<li>Moving namespaced elements between documents was problematic as
-references to the original document would remain. This has been fixed
-by applying xmlReconciliateNs() after each move operation.</li>
-<li>Can pass None to 'dump()' without segfaults.</li>
-<li>tostring() works properly for non-root elements as well.</li>
-<li>Cleaned out the tostring() method so it should handle encoding
-correctly.</li>
-<li>Cleaned out the ElementTree.write() method so it should handle encoding
-correctly. Writing directly to a file should also be faster, as there is no
-need to go through a Python string in that case. Made sure the test cases
-test both serializing to StringIO as well as serializing to a real file.</li>

+package can be imported at runtime.</li>
+<li>Element attributes passed in as an <tt class="docutils literal">attrib</tt> dict or as keyword
+arguments are now sorted by (namespaced) name before being created
+to make their order predictable for serialisation and iteration.

+<li>Add 'prefix' attribute to element to be able to read prefix information.
+This is entirely read-only.</li>
+<li>It is possible to supply an extra nsmap keyword parameter to
+the Element() and SubElement() constructors, which supplies a
+prefix to namespace URI mapping. This will create namespace
+prefix declarations on these elements and these prefixes will show up
+in XML serialization.</li>

+<h2>Bugs fixed</h2>
+<ul class="simple">
+<li>Killed yet another memory management related bug: trees created
+using newDoc would not get a libxml2-level dictionary, which caused
+problems when deallocating these documents later if they contained a
+node that came from a document with a dictionary.</li>
+<li>Moving namespaced elements between documents was problematic as
+references to the original document would remain. This has been fixed
+by applying xmlReconciliateNs() after each move operation.</li>
+<li>Can pass None to 'dump()' without segfaults.</li>
+<li>tostring() works properly for non-root elements as well.</li>
+<li>Cleaned out the tostring() method so it should handle encoding
+correctly.</li>
+<li>Cleaned out the ElementTree.write() method so it should handle encoding
+correctly. Writing directly to a file should also be faster, as there is no
+need to go through a Python string in that case. Made sure the test cases
+test both serializing to StringIO as well as serializing to a real file.</li>

==================
Bugs fixed
----------
- * Expression cache in ElementPath was ignored. Fix by Changaco.
-
- * LP#1426868: Passing a default namespace and a prefixed namespace mapping
- as nsmap into ``xmlfile.element()`` raised a ``TypeError``.
-
- * LP#1421927: DOCTYPE system URLs were incorrectly quoted when containing
- double quotes. Patch by Olli Pottonen.
-
- * LP#1419354: meta-redirect URLs were incorrectly processed by
- ``iterlinks()`` if preceded by whitespace.
+ * An ElementTree compatibility test added in lxml 3.4.3 that failed in
+ Python 3.4+ was removed again.
