68 Changeable attributes should be explained at a central place.
70 - linealign and circlealign
71 - need to be redone anyway

729 - new module for handling of convex polygons (taken out of the graph module)
731 - new module containing a collection of helper functions (taken out of the graph module)

734 - new module: a new and preferable integration of TeX/LaTeX
736 - strip glyphs from pfa/pfb-fonts
737 - there is a C implementation taken from pdftex
738 - fallback solution via an external program (pfb2pfa)
740 - (partial) C binding to libkpathsea

745 - allow for tailing zeros of automatic generated labels
746 - allow for missing data in bar graphs -> skipmissing parameter
747 - remove the support for variables given as keyword arguments in data constructor

755 - convert_to is now an internal function, which moreover does not longer accept tuples or lists
757 - new class _bbox (the former bbox) which accepts points in the constructor. This is used
758 for internal purposes.
759 - the bbox constructor now accepts user lengths in the constructor.
760 - new methods height, width, top, bottom, left, right
761 - ll & ur ???, what about ul and lr -> ugly!

766 - new constructor signature, more in line with rest of PyX:
767 epsfile(x, y, filename, **additional_args)

791 - just one common place for the version number
792 - fix incorrect exception name MathError (path module)
793 - prevent double return of intersections for closed sub paths
798 - allow division of length by numbers
800 - new transformation: slant
801 - renamed all trafo methods to use the participle (i.e translate->translated)
802 - the name of all trafo subclasses are verbs (i.e. translation->translate)
804 - mark class renamed to symbol
