1362 ``setattr``); thanks to Roman Suzi.
1363 - Encapsulated visitor dynamic assignments in a function; thanks to
1365 - Added indirect_reference_name attribute to the Targetable

1381 * docutils/languages/cs.py: Added to project; Czech mappings by Marek
1384 * docutils/languages/eo.py: Added to project; Esperanto mappings by
1385 Marcelo Huerta San Martin.
1387 * docutils/languages/pt_br.py: Added to project; Brazilian Portuguese
1388 mappings by Lalo Martins.
1390 * docutils/languages/ru.py: Added to project; Russian mappings by

1409 - Added support for quoted (and unindented) literal blocks.
1410 Driven in part by a bribe from Frank Siebenlist (thanks!).
1411 - Parser now handles escapes in URIs correctly.
1412 - Made embedded-URIs' reference text omittable. Idea from Beni
1414 - Refactored explicit target processing code.
1415 - Added name attribute to references containing the reference name only
1416 through whitespace_normalize_name (no case changes).
1417 - parse_target no longer returns the refname after going through
1418 normalize_name. This is now handled in make_target.
1419 - Fixed bug relating to role-less interpreted text in non-English
1421 - Reorganized interpreted text processing; moved code into the new
1422 roles.py module. Contributed by Edward Loper.

1431 * docutils/parsers/rst/directives/__init__.py:
1433 - Renamed ``unchanged()`` directive option conversion function to
1434 ``unchanged_required``, and added a new ``unchanged``.

1436 - Beefed up directive error reporting.
1438 * docutils/parsers/rst/directives/body.py:
1440 - Added basic "table" directive.
1442 * docutils/parsers/rst/directives/images.py:
1444 - Added "target" option to "image" directive.

1446 through whitespace_normalize_name (no case changes).
1448 * docutils/parsers/rst/directives/misc.py:

1451 problems on SourceForge (``libssl.so.2`` unavailable?).
1452 - Added the "role" directive for declaring custom interpreted text
1455 * docutils/parsers/rst/directives/parts.py:
1457 - The "contents" directive does more work up-front, creating the
1458 "topic" and "title", and leaving the "pending" node for the
1459 transform. Allows earlier reference resolution; fixes subtle bug.
1461 * docutils/parsers/rst/languages/af.py: Added to project; Afrikaans
1462 mappings by Jannie Hofmeyr.
1464 * docutils/parsers/rst/languages/cs.py: Added to project; Czech

1476 * docutils/transforms/parts.py:
1478 - The "contents" directive does more work up-front, creating the
1479 "topic" and "title", and leaving the "pending" node for the
1480 transform. Allows earlier reference resolution; fixes subtle bug.
1481 - Added support for disabling of section numbering.
1483 * docutils/transforms/references.py:
1485 - Verifying that external targets are truly targets and not indirect
1486 references. This is because we are now adding a "name" attribute to
1487 references in addition to targets. Note sure if this is correct!
1488 - Added code to hook into the unknown_reference_resolvers list for a
1489 transformer in resolve_indirect_target. This allows the
1490 unknown_reference_resolvers to keep around indirect targets which
1491 docutils doesn't know about.
1492 - Added specific error message for duplicate targets.
1494 * docutils/transforms/universal.py:

1499 to FinalCheckVisitor for application-specific handling of
1500 unresolvable references.

1520 and store them in a dictionary as the "parts" attribute of the writer.
1521 Contributed by Reggie Dugard at the Docutils sprint at PyCon DC 2004.
1522 - Added proper support for the "scale" attribute of the "image"
1523 element. Contributed by Brent Cook.
1524 - Added ``--initial-header-level`` option.
1525 - Fixed bug: the body_pre_docinfo segment depended on there being a
1526 docinfo; if no docinfo, the document title was incorporated into
1527 the body segment. Adversely affected the publish_parts interface.
1529 * docutils/writers/latex2e.py:
1531 - Changed default stylesheet to "no stylesheet" to avoid latex complaining
1532 about a missing file.
1533 - Added options and support: ``--compound-enumerators``,

1538 problematic characters (eg, '~' in italian) in literal blocks.

1540 `report` LaTeX classes. The default `article` class still has
