!   Version 2.0.1 -- 
  
!     The primary reason for this release is to resolve several bugs
!     which prevented Win32 support from working properly.  Support for
!     Win32 operating systems should now be restored.
  
      - **New Features**
  
!       - Added limited support for CGI programs by expanding the docset
!         processing to look for files ending in '.cgi' as well as
!         '.py'.
  
      - **Bug Fixes**
  
!       - Resolved defect #505456 and 498204, a problem with
!         'happydocwin.py' that prevented it from working properly on
!         Win32 systems.
  
!       - Resolved defect #501240 so that path handling under Win32
!         systems works properly and HappyDoc can generate output.  
  
!       - Resolved defect #505188 so that using the '-o' option will
!         properly send output to stdout.
  
      - **Other Changes**
  
!       - Added more unit tests for formatters, especially
!         'fileformatterbase.py' and 'formatter_HTMLFile.py'.
  
-       - Updated the StructuredTextNG docstring converter so that if an
-         exception is generated during parsing of the ST, we fall back
-         to ClassicStructuredText.  The two syntaxes appear to be
-         incompatible, and this should protect backwards compatibility
-         for most users.

      in the 'bin' directory.
  
!   Version 2.1 -- 
  
!     The primary reason for this release is to resolve the infamous *-d
!     bug*.
  
      - **New Features**
  
!       - #514237 - The PluginLoader no longer requires a '.py'
!         extension on plugins.  This should allow plugins to be written
!         in any language for which Python can load a module, and as
!         long as the file is named with the right convention they will
!         be picked up and loaded.  (The source of this change request
!         was the maintainers of the PLD Linux Distribution.)
  
      - **Bug Fixes**
  
!       - Resolved defect #513850, where output was written to the wrong
!         place when the -d option was used.  
  
!         **NOTE** *The solution to this problem resulted in changes to
!         the file names being used for output.  It is recommended that
!         a new directory be used to generate documentation for existing
!         code, rather than trying to write over the top of existing
!         files.*
  
!       - Resolved defect #510447, a problem with escaping special
!         characters in HTML output.  Text enclosed in single quotes
!         is now not escaped in output so that HTML text can be 
!         passed directly to the output file.
! 
!       - Fixed a problem with Windows installation using 'setup.py'.
  
      - **Other Changes**
  
!       - Minor tweaks to the build and test tools.
