===========
Released 2014-10-14.
* `Documentation`_ has been added.
* All fixers are now idempotent, which allows modernize to safely be applied
more than once to the same source code.
* The option to include default fixers when ``-f`` options are used is now
spelled ``-f default``, rather than ``-f all``.
* Added a ``--version`` option to the modernize command.
* Calls to ``zip``, ``map``, and ``filter`` are now wrapped with ``list()``
in non-iterator contexts, to preserve Python 2 semantics.
* Improved fixer for ``xrange`` using ``six.moves.range``.
* Simplified use of ``six.with_metaclass`` for classes with more than
one base class.
* New fixer for imports of renamed standard library modules, using
``six.moves``.
* New fixer to add ``from __future__ import absolute_import`` to all
files with imports, and change any implicit relative imports to explicit
(see PEP 328).
* New fixer for ``input()`` and ``raw_input()``, changed to ``eval(input())``
and ``input()`` respectively.
* New fixer for ``file()``, changed to ``open()``. There is also an
opt-in fixer that changes both of these to ``io.open()``.
* New fixer for ``(int, long)`` or ``(long, int)``, changed to
``six.integer_types``. Other references to ``long`` are changed to ``int``.
* New fixer for ``basestring``, changed to ``six.string_types``.
* New fixer for ``unicode``, changed to ``six.text_type``.
* The ``fix_next`` fixer uses the ``next()`` builtin rather than
``six.advance_iterator``.
* There is test coverage for all ``libmodernize`` fixers.
* Simplified the implementation of many ``libmodernize`` fixers by extending
similar fixers from ``lib2to3``.
* Fixed a bug where ``fix_raise_six`` was adding an incorrect import
statement.
* Support for targeting Python 2.5 or lower has been officially dropped.
(Previously some fixers did output constructs that were only added in
Python 2.6, such as the ``except ... as`` construct, but this was not
documented.)
