1.66     Unknown
   - Perl-thread support contributed by Tim Brody [rt.cpan.org #31945]
   - fix [rt.cpan.org #30610] possible segmentation fault when importing nodes from a document to an element created with XML::LibXML::Element->new
   - fix [rt.cpan.org #30261] Segmentation fault when extracting elements from an XML chunk
   - make Makefile.PL require Perl 5.6.1
   - minor fixes and additions to the documentation
   - portability patch from [rt.cpan.org #29627]
   - give registered Ns declarations precedence over document-specific ones
     in XML::LibXML::XPathContext; fixes [rt.cpan.org #29650]

1.65     Unknown
   - fix bug in t/40reader.t revealed by a bugfix in Test::More 0.71 (Jonathan Rockway)
   - fix possible SIGSEGV when PI's or attrs created with
     createDocument can get garbage-collected after their owning
     document (old-standing bug suddenly caught by XML::Compile regression tests)
   - skip tests for unsupported features on unsupported versions of Perl/libxml2
   - make Reader interface require Perl 5.8 (patches to extend to 5.6 are welcome)

1.64     Unknown
   - fix reconciliation of the "xml" namespace [rt.cpan.org #26450]
   - make tests pass with libxml2 2.9.29 - PI regression tests now
     accept "" as data of an empty PI [rt.cpan.org #27659]
   - strip-off UTF8 flag with $node->toString($format,1) for consistent
     behavior independent on the actual document encoding
   - fix in XML::LibXML::Reader::nextSiblingElment
   - fix synopsis for XML::LibXML::Reader
   - skip tests that require Encode module if not available (perl 5.6)
   - finally removed the iterator() method deprecated since 1.54
   - set_document_locator support in XML::LibXML::SAX::Parser
   - SYNOPSIS sections of the docs now mention which module to use
     and which other manpage to look into for inherited methods
   - XML::LibXML::Namespace API fixed in order to achieve
     an agreement between the docs and the implementation

1.63     Unknown
   - added no_network parser flag
   - added support for exclusive canonicalization (http://www.w3.org/TR/xml-exc-c14n/)
   - make XInclude reflect parser flags
   - documentation fixes
   - better namespace reconciliation implemented by Tim Brody
   - $doc->toString always returns octets
   - $doc->actualEncoding returns UTF8 if no document encoding is declared
     (unlike $doc->getEncoding, which returns undef)

1.62     Unknown
   - interface to libxml2's pull-parser XML::LibXML::Reader
     (initiated by Heiko Klein)
   - make error messages intended to the user report the line of the
     application call rather than that of the internal XS call
   - XML::LibXML::Attr->serializeContent added (convenience function)
   - fix getAttributeNode etc. w.r.t. #FIXED attributes (as well as some
     cases with old buggy libxml2 versions)
   - warn if runtime libxml2 is older than the one used at the compile time
   - if compiled against libxml2 >= 2.6.27, new parse_html_* implementation is used
     allowing encoding and other options to be passed to the parser
   - DOM-compliant nodeNames: #comment, #text, #cdata, #document, #document-fragment
   - toString on empty text node returns empty string, not undef
   - cloneNode copies attributes on an element as required by the DOM spec

1.61     Unknown
   - get{Elements,Children}By{TagName,TagNameNS,LocalName} now
     obey wildcards '*', getChildrenByLocalName was added.
   - XML::LibXML::XPathContext merged in
   - many new tests added
   - the module should now be fully compatibile with libxml2 >= 2.6.16
     (some older versions compile but have problems with namespaced attributes)
   - threads test skipped by default
   - documentation updates (namely DOM namespace conformance in XML::LibXML::DOM)
   - added setNamespaceDecl{URI,Prefix}
   - get/setAttribute(NS)? implementation made xmlns aware
   - all sub-modules have the same version as XML::LibXML

1.60     Unknown
   - getElementsById corrected to getElementById and the old name kept
     as an alias. Also re-implemented without XPath for improved
     performance
   - DOM Level 3 method $attr->isId() added
   - make {get,set,has}Attribute(Node)? methods work with full
     attribute names rather than just localnames.
     (Although DOM Level 3 is not very clear about the behavior of
     these methods for an attributes with namespaces, it certainly
     does not imply that getAttribute('foo') should return value of a
     bar:foo, which was the old behavior.)
   - added publicId and systemId methods to XML::LibXML::Dtd

1.59     Unknown
   - new parser and callback code (Christian Glahn)
   - new XML::LibXML::InputCallback class
   - many bug fixes (including several memory leaks)
   - documentation and regression fixes and enhancements
   - Perl wrappers for parse_html_*
   - make sure parse_* methods are not called on class (bug 11126)
   - DOM Layer 3 conformance fixes:
     * lookupNamespaceURI(empty_or_undef) now returns the default NS
   - faster getChildrenByTagNameNS implementation
   - remove the SGML parser code no longer supported by libxml (Michael Kröll)

1.58     Unknown
   - fixed a pointer initialization in parse_xml_chunk(), fixes
     random several segmentation faults on document fragments.
   - added NSCLEAN feature to the parser interface (bug 4560)
   - minor code cleanups
   - updated libxml2 blacklist.
   - fixed croak while requesting nodeName() of CDATA sections (bug 1694).
   - more documentation updates

1.57     Unknown
   - added cloneNode to XML::LibXML::Document
   - include Schema/RelaxNG code only with libxml2 >= 2.6.0 (to support old libxml2)
   - applied patch to example/cb_example.pl (bug 4262)
   - fixed insertBefore/insertAfter on empty elements (bug 3691)
   - more DOM conformant XML::LibXML->createDocument API (by Robin Berjon)
   - fixed encoding problems with API calls in document encoding
   - improved support for importing DTD subsets
   - fixed DTD validation error reporting problems with libxml2-2.6.x
