64 Changeable attributes should be explained at a central place.
66 - linealign and circlealign
67 - need to be redone anyway

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

709 - new module: a new and preferable integration of TeX/LaTeX
711 - strip glyphs from pfa/pfb-fonts
712 - there is a C implementation taken from pdftex
713 - fallback solution via an external program (pfb2pfa)

718 - removed some code duplication (various axis painters)
719 - use text module instead of the obsolete tex module
720 - allow for tailing zeros of automatic generated labels
721 - allow for missing data in bar graphs -> skipmissing parameter
722 - remove the support for variables given as keyword arguments in data constructor
723 - use context instead of extern for extern variables and functions

726 - new classes for visual and width lengths, aliases for user length (u_pt = pt)
727 - all length classes have now by default a quantifier 1 (instead of 0), such that,
728 for instance, 5*unit.t_cm() == unit.t_cm(5)
729 - default_unit now has to be set via unit.set. For instance: unit.set(defaultunit="m").
730 - convert_to is now an internal function, which moreover does not longer accept tuples or lists
732 - new class _bbox (the former bbox) which accepts points in the constructor. This is used
733 for internal purposes.
734 - the bbox constructor now accepts user lengths in the constructor.
735 - new methods height, width, top, bottom, left, right

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

748 - added support for patterns
749 - canvas.insert() now supports arguments
750 - bbox of canvas can be specified in writetofile command explicitely

753 (as per a suggestion by Michael Schindler)
756 - changed the handling of extern functions and all variables
758 - gradient renamed to palette
760 - problem with sizefile on windows (tex module)
761 - allow for strings in graphxy's width and height; allow for width only (graph module)
762 - disable rating for labelattrs equals None (graph module)
763 - defaultstyle selection, when a list of data is provided to the plot function (graph module)
764 - traverse when adding functions as arguments of operators (mathtree module)
765 - allow for extern functions in addcolumn (data module)
766 - just one common place for the version number
767 - fix incorrect exception name MathError (path module)
768 - prevent double return of intersections for closed sub paths
773 - allow division of length by numbers
775 - new transformation: slant
776 - renamed all trafo methods to use the participle (i.e translate->translated)
777 - the name of all trafo subclasses are verbs (i.e. translation->translate)
779 - mark class renamed to symbol
780 - (text-)box distance measurement
781 - moved axis partitioning to axis and axis painter
782 - automatic axis partitioning (now officially: general cleanup, distance measurement, documentation)

800 - return linewidth upon calculation with linewidths (unit module)
801 - allow column number variables with several digits
803 - british and american spellings (color module, graph module)
804 - small logo modifications
