        :tags: bug
        :pullreq: bitbucket:18

      Update the Lingua translation extraction plugin to correctly
      handle templates mixing Python control statements (such as if,
      for and while) with template fragments. Pull request courtesy
      Laurent Daverio.

      Added ``STOP_RENDERING`` keyword for returning/exiting from a
      template early, which is a synonym for an empty string ``""``.
      Previously, the docs suggested a bare
      ``return``, but this could cause ``None`` to appear in the
      rendered template result.

        :pullreq: bitbucket:8

      Improved the error re-raise operation when a custom
      :paramref:`.Template.error_handler` is used that does not handle
      the exception; the original stack trace etc. is now preserved.
      Pull request courtesy Manfred Haltner.

    .. change::
        :tags: bug, py2k, filters
        :pullreq: bitbucket:7

      Added an html_escape filter that works in "non unicode" mode.
      Previously, when using ``disable_unicode=True``, the ``u`` filter
      would fail to handle non-ASCII bytes properly.  Pull request
      courtesy George Xie.

    .. change::
        :tags: general

      Compatibility changes; in order to modernize the codebase, Mako
      is now dropping support for Python 2.4 and Python 2.5 altogether.
      The source base is now targeted at Python 2.6 and forwards.

    .. change::
        :tags: feature

      Template modules now generate a JSON "metadata" structure at the bottom
      of the source file which includes parseable information about the
      templates' source file, encoding etc. as well as a mapping of module
      source lines to template lines, thus replacing the "# SOURCE LINE"
      markers throughout the source code.  The structure also indicates those
      lines that are explicitly not part of the template's source; the goal
      here is to allow better integration with coverage and other tools.

    .. change::
        :tags: bug, py3k

      Fixed bug in ``decode.<encoding>`` filter where a non-string object
      would not be correctly interpreted in Python 3.
    .. change::
        :tags: bug, py3k
        :tickets: 227

      Fixed bug in Python parsing logic which would fail on Python 3
      when a "try/except" targeted a tuple of exception types, rather
      than a single exception.

      mako-render is now implemented as a setuptools entrypoint script;
      a standalone mako.cmd.cmdline() callable is now available, and the
      system also uses argparse now instead of optparse.  Pull request

      The mako-render script will now catch exceptions and run them
      into the text error handler, and exit with a non-zero exit code.

      A rework of the mako-render script allows the script to run
      correctly when given a file pathname that is outside of the current
      directory, e.g. ``mako-render ../some_template.mako``.  In this case,
      the "template root" defaults to the directory in which the template
      is located, instead of ".".  The script also accepts a new argument
      ``--template-dir`` which can be specified multiple times to establish
      template lookup directories.  Standard input for templates also works
      now too.  Pull request courtesy Derek Harland.

    .. change::
        :tags: feature, py3k
        :pullreq: github:7

      Support is added for Python 3 "keyword only" arguments, as used in
      defs.  Pull request courtesy Eevee.

      Changed the format of the "source encoding" header output
      by the code generator to use the format ``# -*- coding:%s -*-``
      instead of ``# -*- encoding:%s -*-``; the former is more common
      and compatible with emacs.  Courtesy Martin Geisler.

      The Context.locals_() method becomes a private underscored
      method, as this method has a specific internal use. The purpose
      of Context.kwargs has been clarified, in that it only delivers
      top level keyword arguments originally passed to template.render().

        :tickets:

      Fixed the babel plugin to properly interpret ${} sections
      inside of a "call" tag, i.e. <%self:some_tag attr="${_('foo')}"/>.
      Code that's subject to babel escapes in here needs to be
      specified as a Python expression, not a literal.  This change
      is backwards incompatible vs. code that is relying upon a _('')
      translation to be working within a call tag.

    .. change::
        :tags: bug

      The Babel plugin has been repaired to work on Python 3.

      Using <%namespace import="*" module="somemodule"/> now
      skips over module elements that are not explcitly callable,
      avoiding TypeError when trying to produce partials.

      Fixed Py3K bug where a "lambda" expression was not

      Changed setup.py to skip installing markupsafe
      if Python version is < 2.6 or is between 3.0 and
      less than 3.3, as Markupsafe now only supports 2.6->2.X,

      legacy_html_escape function, used when

      Added special compatibility for the 0.5.0
      Cache() constructor, which was preventing file
      version checks and not allowing Mako 0.6 to
      recompile the module files.

        :tickets:

      Template caching has been converted into a plugin
      system, whereby the usage of Beaker is just the
      default plugin.   Template and TemplateLookup
      now accept a string "cache_impl" parameter which
      refers to the name of a cache plugin, defaulting
      to the name 'beaker'.  New plugins can be
      registered as pkg_resources entrypoints under
      the group "mako.cache", or registered directly
      using mako.cache.register_plugin().  The
      core plugin is the mako.cache.CacheImpl
      class.

        :tickets:

      Added support for Beaker cache regions
      in templates.   Usage of regions should be considered
      as superseding the very obsolete idea of passing in
      backend options, timeouts, etc. within templates.

      The 'put' method on Cache is now

      The <%def>, <%block> and <%page> tags now accept

        :tickets:

      Template and TemplateLookup now accept an argument
      cache_args, which refers to a dictionary containing
      cache parameters.  The cache_dir, cache_url, cache_type,
      cache_timeout arguments are deprecated (will probably
      never be removed, however) and can be passed
      now as cache_args={'url':<some url>, 'type':'memcached',
      'timeout':50, 'dir':'/path/to/some/directory'}

      Can now refer to context variables
      within extra arguments to <%block>, <%def>, i.e.
      <%block name="foo" cache_key="${somekey}">.
      Filters can also be used in this way, i.e.
      <%def name="foo()" filter="myfilter">
      then template.render(myfilter=some_callable)

      Added "--var name=value" option to the mako-render

        :tickets: 181

      Added module_writer argument to Template,
      TemplateLookup, allows a callable to be passed which
      takes over the writing of the template's module source
      file, so that special environment-specific steps
      can be taken.

      The "benchmark" example is now Python 3 compatible
      (even though several of those old template libs aren't
      available on Py3K, so YMMV)

      A Template is explicitly disallowed
      from having a url that normalizes to relative outside
      of the root.   That is, if the Lookup is based
      at /home/mytemplates, an include that would place
      the ultimate template at
      /home/mytemplates/../some_other_directory,
      i.e. outside of /home/mytemplates,
      is disallowed.   This usage was never intended
      despite the lack of an explicit check.
      The main issue this causes
      is that module files can be written outside
      of the module root (or raise an error, if file perms aren't
      set up), and can also lead to the same template being
      cached in the lookup under multiple, relative roots.
      TemplateLookup instead has always supported multiple
      file roots for this purpose.

      Fixed bug regarding <%call>/def calls w/ content

      inside the <%def> would be corrupted by the
      presence of another <%call> in the same block.

    .. change::

        :tickets: 164

      New tag: <%block>.  A variant on <%def> that
      evaluates its contents in-place.
      Can be named or anonymous,
      the named version is intended for inheritance
      layouts where any given section can be
      surrounded by the <%block> tag in order for
      it to become overrideable by inheriting
      templates, without the need to specify a
      top-level <%def> plus explicit call.
      Modified scoping and argument rules as well as a
      more strictly enforced usage scheme make it ideal
      for this purpose without at all replacing most
      other things that defs are still good for.
      Lots of new docs.

      a slight adjustment to the "highlight" logic

      The FastEncodingBuffer is now used
      by default instead of cStringIO or StringIO,
      regardless of whether output_encoding
      is set to None or not.  FEB is faster than
      both.  Only StringIO allows bytestrings
      of unknown encoding to pass right
      through, however - while it is of course
      not recommended to send bytestrings of unknown
      encoding to the output stream, this
      mode of usage can be re-enabled by
      setting the flag bytestring_passthrough
      to True.

      the <%namespace> tag raises an error
      if the 'template' and 'module' attributes
      are specified at the same time in
      one tag.  A different class is used

      call overhead.

      Beaker is now part of "extras" in

      The Beaker import (or attempt thereof)

      New flag on Template, TemplateLookup -

      The range of Python identifiers that
      are considered "undefined", meaning they
      are pulled from the context, has been
      trimmed back to not include variables
      declared inside of expressions (i.e. from
      list comprehensions), as well as
      in the argument list of lambdas.  This
      to better support the strict_undefined

      a little bit of tinkering in the AST code,

      Source code escaping has been simplified.
      In particular, module source files are now
      generated with the Python "magic encoding
      comment", and source code is passed through
      mostly unescaped, except for that code which

      The %call tag itself will always remain,
      with <%namespacename:defname> presenting a more HTML-like
      alternative to calling defs, both plain and

      added "bytestring passthru" mode, via
      `disable_unicode=True` argument passed to Template or
      TemplateLookup. All unicode-awareness and filtering is
      turned off, and template modules are generated with
      the appropriate magic encoding comment. In this mode,
      template expressions can only receive raw bytestrings
      or Unicode objects which represent straight ASCII, and
      render_unicode() may not be used if multibyte
      characters are present. When enabled, speed

      added "attr" accessor to namespaces. Returns
      attributes configured as module level attributes, i.e.
      within <%! %> sections.  i.e.:

      # somefile.html
      <%!

      %>

      # some other template
      <%namespace name="myns" file="somefile.html"/>
      ${myns.attr.foo}

      The slight backwards incompatibility here is, you
      can't have namespace defs named "attr" since the
      "attr" descriptor will occlude it.
