new version-aware code, use the gdata.client, atom.data, gdata.data
modules and classes that derive from them. For example, use
gdata.blogger.client.BloggerClient instead of
gdata.blogger.service.BloggerService. High level, service specific classes
are not available yet for other services, so feel free to migrate as they

use at your own risk.

=== 1.2.4 ===
Jan 22, 2009 (revision 603)

- Added a new AtomPubClient class (and supporting classes) which begins a
foundation on which support for version two of the Google Data protocol
will be built.
- OAuth methods can now specify the desired OAuth server with the default
being the Google Accounts end point (thanks Dag Brattli!).
- Improved support for unicode strings in XML element class attributes and
text nodes (thanks again to Dag).
- Fixed constructors for Service classes which inherit from GDataService
to ensure that all parameters are passed up to the superclass
constructor (thanks Guillaume Ryder!).
- Added a 'contact_list' property to ContactsService to simplify API usage
for shared contacts (thanks Guillaume once again).
- For Google Contacts, added a GetFeedUri method to help users generating
feed URIs (Guillaume for a hat-trick).
- New unit tests to ensure that the ordering of entry objects within a feed
is preserved when converting to and from XML.

=== 1.2.3 ===
Dec 3, 2008 (revision 585)

- Added support for OAuth (thanks to Kunal Shah!). Your client can now obtain
an authorization token using the OAuth protocol.
- Added support for Secure AuthSub (thanks Eric Bidelman!). Your client can
digitally sign requests using RSA allowing Google service to verify that
the request came from your application.
- Added a new module for parsing XML which will be used in future versions to
support version of the Google Data APIs protocol. This new library handles
versioning of XML schemas.
- The Google Contacts API sample now pages through results.
- Added phone number rel types using in the Google Contacts API.
- The YouTube service module will use cElementTree if it is available.
Improves XML parsing speed.
- Fixed typo in gdata.geo, changed longtitude to longitude but kept an alias
for backwards compatibility.
- Fixed Blogger's GetBlogId regular expressions to extract the ID from
multiple kinds of entries.
- Fixed type check in atom.http to allow unicode URL strings.
- Added webmastertools test to the packaged download which fixed failures
when running all data tests.
- Improved compatibility of unit tests with Python2.3.
- Added copies of tlslite and dependencies to support secure AuthSub and
OAuth.
- Changed the default host for Google Apps API requests to
apps-apis.google.com.

=== 1.2.2 ===
Oct 15, 2008 (revision 556)

- Added support for the following APIs:
Google Apps Email Migration API
Google Apps Email Settings API
Google Webmaster Tools Data API
Some modules for the above are not yet fully tested, so please file an
issue if you notice something is not working as expected.
- Restored support for gdata.http_request_handler when using App Engine to
preserve backwards compatibility.
- Simplified auth token management by adding a current_token member to
service classes. Also added settings to control when the token_store
is updated when using SetXToken() methods. The token_store will only be
queried if there is no current_token.
- Fixed issue with requests to HTTPS URLs in which an AuthSub token was seen
as invalid because the request contained the default port number (443).
The library no longer includes the port in the Host header if it is using
the default.
- Resolved issues with YouTube token scopes.
- Fixed issue which appeared when the Calendar API issues a redirect to a
PUT request. The library now correctly retries with a PUT (instead of
a POST).
- Added workaround for differences in how the App Engine SDK handles
redirects.
- Fixed typo in gdata.EntryLink declaration.
- Fixed invalid host errors seen when using some HTTP proxies.

=== 1.2.1 ===
Sep 15, 2008 (revision 529)

- The gdata.alt.appengine module now replaces a Service object's token_store
with an AppEngineTokenStore which automatically associates auth tokens
with the current user and stores the auth tokens in the datastore.
- Streamlined the gdata.auth module. There are now six recommended functions
for using Google auth mechanisms. GDataService now uses these six
functions.
- Added an override_token in Service objects (AtomService, GDataService)
which bypasses the token_store. This member is helpful when using a
single use AuthSub token which is only valid for one request and so
would not be reused.
- gdata.alt.appengin.run_on_appengine will now return the modified Service
object. This allows statements like:
client = gdata.alt.appengin.run_on_appengine(
gdata.blogger.service.BloggerService())
- Fixed content length header issue in gdata.alt.appengine which caused
errors when running on App Engine when HTTP headers are set to
non-string values.
- Fixed function naming issue in gdata.alt.appengine, a "private" function
was not accessible in some import styles.
- Fixed issue in atom.http which surfaces when passing in a string for the
port number. Ports are now cast to ints.
- Updated pydocs.

=== 1.2.0 ===
Sep 9, 2008 (revision 522)

- Refactored HTTP request mechanisms and the way that Authorization headers
are created and applied to requests. These changes make it easier to
swap out the HTTP layer to allow the library to be used in different
environments (like Google App Engine). The changes in Auth token logic
should make it much easier to add support for secure AuthSub and OAuth.
For more details on this change, see the following wiki page:
http://code.google.com/p/gdata-python-client/wiki/HTTPRequestRefactoring
- Fixed issues with token string modification which caused certain AuthSub
token values to become invalid.
- Created a new module for parsing and constructing URLs (atom.url).
- Created a module for token storage which will lookup the correct auth token
to be used for a particular URL.
- Auth tokens are now represented as objects and contain information about the
scopes (URLs) for which they can be used. The token object is responsible
for adding the Authorization header to the request.
- Added new functions to gdata.auth for extracting the raw token string from
a response to an AuthSub token upgrade request.
- Added support for the location query parameter in YouTube queries.
- Added groups functionality to the Contacts API library.
- Batch request support added for Contacts API operations.
- Added default behavior to text_db GetTables: when no worksheet name or ID
is specified, all tables are retrieved.
- Fixed client login for YouTube.
- Fixed issue in YouTube service when setting the developer key.
- Fixed bug in YouTube service which raised an exception when inserting a
video using a file-like object.
- Added a method to Feed and Entry classes to find the "previous" link.
- A failure when attempting to upgrade a single use AuthSub token to a session
token will now raise an exception.
- AppsForYourDomainException now uses Python2.5 style exception construction.
- Moved the logic for using this library on Google App Engine into a new
module: gdata.alt.appengine.

=== 1.1.1 ===
June 13, 2008 (revision 421)

- Added support for new feeds available in the Google Contacts API. Adding
contact groups, querying for contacts in a group, specifying extended
properties, and setting the contact's photo are now supported.
- The ExtendedProperty class can now contain a blob of XML instead of just
an attribute value. This is used in the Google Contacts Data API.
- The YouTube service now has methods for updating playlists and removing a
video from a playlist.
- Added geo-location to the YouTube service class.
- When using ClientLogin with Blogger, the default account type is now set
to 'GOOGLE'. This prevents the rare problem of a user having a Google
Apps account which conflicts with his or her Google Account used for
Blogger.
- Added support for the in-reply-to element which appears in Blogger
comments.

at the start of the token to be removed incorrectly.
- Fixed a bug in the gdata.apps.service module which caused an import to
fail when loading ElementTree in some cases.

and run_all_tests now that the subtests have been made into packages.

=== 1.0.12.1 ===
April 10, 2008 (revision 341)

=== 1.0.12 ===
April 8, 2008 (revision 334)

- Added support for the Google Contacts API.

=== 1.0.11 ===
February 11, 2008 (revision 290)

- Modified the gdata.service.GDataService to include a handler member to
which all HTTP requests are delegated. This will allow the underlying
HTTP client to be swapped out and pave the way for use of a mock server
in unit tests.
- Fixed character encoding problems when parsing non ASCII XML.
- Added pydocs for gdata's geo, exif, and media packages.
