<h1>Changes in version 2.7.x<a class="headerlink" href="#changes-in-version-2-7-x" title="Permalink to this headline">ΒΆ</a></h1>
<p>The 2.7 series was a brief but necessary transition towards some of the core ideas in version 3.0.</p>
<p><strong class="program">Ultra-liberal Feed Parser</strong> 2.7.6 was released on January 16, 2004.</p>
<ul class="simple">
<li>fixed bug with <tt class="file docutils literal"><span class="pre">StringIO</span></tt> importing</li>
</ul>
<p><strong class="program">Ultra-liberal Feed Parser</strong> 2.7.5 was released on January 15, 2004.</p>
<ul class="simple">
<li>added workaround for malformed DOCTYPE (seen on many <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">blogspot.com</span></tt> sites)</li>
<li>added <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">_debug</span></tt> variable</li>
</ul>
<p><strong class="program">Ultra-liberal Feed Parser</strong> 2.7.4 was released on January 14, 2004.</p>
<ul class="simple">
<li>added workaround for improperly formed <br/> tags in encoded <abbr title="HyperText Markup Language">HTML</abbr> (skadz)</li>
<li>fixed unicode handling in normalize_attrs (ChrisL)</li>
<li>fixed relative <abbr title="Uniform Resource Identifier">URI</abbr> processing for guid (skadz)</li>
<li>added ICBM support</li>
<li>added <tt class="file docutils literal"><span class="pre">base64</span></tt> support</li>
</ul>
<p><strong class="program">Ultra-liberal Feed Parser</strong> 2.7.3 was released on January 14, 2004.</p>
<ul class="simple">
<li>reverted all changes made in 2.7.2</li>
</ul>
<p><strong class="program">Ultra-liberal Feed Parser</strong> 2.7.2 was released on January 13, 2004.</p>
<ul class="simple">
<li>“Version 2.7.2 of my feed parser, released today, will by default refuse to parse <a class="reference external" href="http://intertwingly.net/stories/2004/01/12/broken.rss">this feed</a>. It does a first-pass check for wellformedness, and when that fails it sets the ‘bozo’ bit in the result to <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">1</span></tt> and immediately terminates. You can revert to the previous behavior by passing <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">disableWellFormedCheck=1</span></tt>, but it will print arrogant warning messages to stderr to the effect that anyone who can’t create a well-formed <abbr title="Extensible Markup Language">XML</abbr> feed is a bozo and an incompetent fool.” <a class="reference external" href="http://intertwingly.net/blog/2004/01/12/Scientific-Method#c1074047818">source</a></li>
</ul>
<p><strong class="program">Ultra-liberal Feed Parser</strong> 2.7.1 was released on January 9, 2004.</p>

<li>added admin:errorReportsTo support (MarekK)</li>
<li><strong class="program">Python</strong> 2.1 <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">dict</span></tt> support (MarekK)</li>
</ul>
<p><strong class="program">Ultra-liberal Feed Parser</strong> 2.7 was released on January 5, 2004.</p>
<ul class="simple">
<li>really added support for trackback and pingback namespaces, as opposed to 2.6 when I said I did but didn’t really</li>
<li>sanitize <abbr title="HyperText Markup Language">HTML</abbr> markup within some elements</li>
<li>added <tt class="file docutils literal"><span class="pre">mxTidy</span></tt> support (if installed) to tidy <abbr title="HyperText Markup Language">HTML</abbr> markup within some elements</li>

<li>use <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">socket.setdefaulttimeout</span></tt> if available (FazalM)</li>
<li>universal date parsing and normalization (FazalM): <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">created</span></tt>, <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">modified</span></tt>, <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">issued</span></tt> are parsed into 9-tuple date format and stored in <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">created_parsed</span></tt>, <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">modified_parsed</span></tt>, and <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">issued_parsed</span></tt></li>
