+-04-22  Frank Koormann  <[email protected]>
+         New Extension to dump bounding boxes of all shapes of the selected
+         layer. An optional column can be specified to group the objects,
+         in this case the bounding box is a union of the separate boxes.
+         Dump can be displayed in a ScrolledMessageDialog or written to file.
+         The Extension is simply a combination of available and well tested
+         Thuban functionality.
+         * Extensions/bboxdump/__init__.py: New: Init to make this
+         directory a package.
+         * Extensions/bboxdump/bboxdump.py: New: Dump bounding boxes of
+         all shapes of the selected layer.
+-04-22  Jan-Oliver Wagner <[email protected]>
+         * Thuban/UI/classgen.py (GenUniquePanel.__init__): Fixed two
+         strings to be i18n now.
+-04-18  Jan-Oliver Wagner <[email protected]>
+         Changing popup menu of legend from direct building
+         to using the Menu construction as used for the mainwindow.
+         * Thuban/UI/mainwindow.py: New method commands: layer_to_top,
+         layer_to_bottom, layer_visibility
+         (MainWindow.LayerToTop): New. Put current layer to the top.
+         (MainWindow.LayerToBottom): New. Put current layer to bottom.
+         (MainWindow.HideLayer, MainWindow.ShowLayer, _has_visible_map):
+         Replace 1,0 by True, False.
+         (MainWindow.ToggleLayerVisibility): New. Toggle visibility of
+         current layer.
+         (MainWindow.LayerShowTable): Removed raising of dialog.
+         (_has_selected_layer_visible): New. Support function.
+         * Thuban/UI/legend.py: ID_POP_xxx: removed.
+         (LegendPanel.__init__): Removed EVT_MENU bindings.
+         (LegendTree._OnRightClick): Replace direct creation of
+         menu via wx Classes by applying the menu definition
+         as of Menu class of menu.py.
+-04-16  Jan-Oliver Wagner <[email protected]>
+         * Thuban/UI/exceptiondialog.py (ExceptionDialog.dialog_layout): Improved
+     button string to stronger clearify that Thuban will be closed when hitting
+         the button.
+         * Thuban/UI/mainwindow.py (MainWindow.LayerShowTable): Added docstring.
+         Now for layers without a ShapeStore a corresponding message is given
+         to the user, that this layer has no table to show.
+-04-15  Martin Schulze  <[email protected]>
+         * Extensions/wms/layer.py (WMSLayer.setWMSFormat): Need to
+         recalculate the format for the internal render engine as well.
+         * Extensions/wms/properties.py (wmsProperties): First start for a
+         properties dialog.  It's functional for a first selection of
+         layers, but still has some weired wxWidgets/GTK problems but
+         beautification can be done later.
+         * Extensions/wms/layer.py: Added more documentation
+         (WMSLayer.getFormats): New: Return list of supported image formats
+         by the WMS server
+         (WMSLayer.getLayers): New: Return the list of layer names
+         supported by the WMS server
+         (WMSLayer.getLayerTitle): New: Return the title of the named layer
+         (WMSLayer.getWMSFormat): New: Return the image format that is used
+         for WMS GetMap requests
+         (WMSLayer.setWMSFormat): New: Set the image format that is used
+         for WMS GetMap requests
+         (WMSLayer.__init__): Move away from using only one layer to using
+         a list of layers (unsorted at the moment, though).
+         (WMSLayer.getVisibleLayers): New: Return the list of names for all
+         visible layers
+         (WMSLayer.setVisibleLayers): New: Set the list of names for all
+         visible layers
+         * Extensions/wms/wms.py: Moved the WMS layer into layer.py in
+         order to establish a clean structure.
+         * Extensions/wms/layer.py: Moved the WMS layer into a file on its
+         own in order to establish a clean structure.
+-04-13  Martin Schulze  <[email protected]>
+         * Extensions/wms/parser.py (WMSCapabilitiesParser.grok): Added
+         support for oldstyle (WMS 1.0 apparently) image format
+         specification.
+         * Extensions/wms/wms.py (WMSLayer.calcFormat): Reduce the list of
+         supported graphic formats back to JPEG and BMP, PNG and others are
+         too *cough* experimental...  Sorry, I meant to filter this out
+         before I committed this part.  This should make the WMS extension
+         run from CVS again.
+         (wms_dialog): Reset an empty URL to None so that the subsequent
+         program can depend on this, since the dialog will indeed return an
+         empty URL, causing another declaration of love by Python.
+         * Extensions/wms/parser.py (WMSCapabilitiesParser.getLayerBBox):
+         Whenever a native BoundingBox request cannot be fulfilled, check
+         whether the requested SRS is EPSG:3426, in which case return the
+         LatLonBoundingBox values.
+         * Extensions/wms/test/test_parser.py
+         (TestWMSCapabilitiesParser.test_LayerSRS): Added a test for
+         ignoring AUTO:* SRS.
+         (TestWMSCapabilitiesParser.test_LatLonBoundingBoxes_as_bboxes):
+         Added another test method to test whether the LatLonBoundingBox
+         values will be returned if BoundingBox values are requested with
+         SRS set to EPSG:3426.
+         * Extensions/wms/parser.py (WMSCapabilitiesParser.peekLayers):
+         Added rudimentary support for non-EPSG SRS, i.e. ignore them for
+         the moment by placing them into a variable which is currently
+         unused.  Also test whether the EPSG SRS is numerical as it should
+         be and add an error message if it is not.
+         * Extensions/wms/test/sample.xml: Added AUTO:* SRS since they
+         appear in the real world as well.  Since we cannot handle them yet
+         (OGCLib can't either), we will ignore them for the moment.
+         * Extensions/wms/parser.py: Use a variable for denoting the sample
+         filename
+         (WMSCapabilitiesParser.peekLayers): Added support for error
+         messages during grok().  They will be aggregated in an array and
+         may be displayed later.  We may have to add a classification
+         "Warning" and "Error" to this.  That requires more experience,
+         though, since not every error may be lethal.
+         * Thuban/UI/mainwindow.py (MainWindow.LayerShowTable): Raise the
+         ShowTable() dialog/frame when the user attempts to display it
+         while it has been opened before already and not closed again.
+-04-11  Martin Schulze  <[email protected]>
+         * Extensions/wms/infodialog.py: Adjusted the class documentation
+         * Extensions/wms/wms.py (WMSLayer.__init__, WMSLayer.GetMapImg):
+         Switch to using Thuban{Begin,End}BusyCursor instead of the pure
+         wxWidgets variants.
+         (WMSLayer.__init__): The epsg_id variable is named top_srs now.
+         * Extensions/wms/infodialog.py: Added an information dialog that
+         will display various information about the WMS current resource,
+         so that additional information such as the title, the abstract,
+         fees and access constraints can be displayed for the user if they
+         are documented in the WMS XML.
+-04-10  Martin Schulze  <[email protected]>
+         * Extensions/wms/parser.py (WMSCapabilitiesParser.grok): Adjusted
+         string handling.  It's "foo".lower() and not lower(foo) without
+         lower imported from strings or something.
+         * Extensions/wms/wms.py (WMSLayer): Incorporated WMSCapabilities
+         from capabilities.py and parser.py.  Implement priority list for
+         supported graphics formats, take care of wbmp != bmp.  PNG, TIFF
+         and GIF are supported here, but not yet by main Thuban.  Hence,
+         support for them may be removed later.  Special contribution to
+         usability: get wxWidgets to change the cursor when we're waiting
+         for data from the network so the user won't start to worry.  This
+         causes a redrawing error/warning, though.
+         * Extensions/wms/parser.py (WMSCapabilitiesParser.grok): Unlink
+         the DOM object.
+-04-01  Martin Schulze  <[email protected]>
+         * Extensions/wms/capabilities.py: Adjusted documentation
+         (WMSCapabilities.__init__): Improved documentation, fixed syntax
+         (WMSCapabilities.saveCapabilities): Only catch IOError when
+         handling files
+         (WMSCapabilities.loadCapabilities): Only catch IOError when
+         handling files
+         __main__: corrected variable naming
+         (WMSCapabilities.fetchCapabilities,loadCapabilities): Make this
+         class a specialisation of WMSCapabilitiesParser as well.  Also
+         execute grok() after loading or fetching capabilities, if that
+         went well, so that subsequent calls can already access the data.
+         (WMSCapabilities.getVersion): Export the used version of the
+         GetCapabilities request, so we can use it for subsequent calls,
+         i.e. for GetMap requests.
+         (WMSCapabilities.fetchCapabilities): Added proper error handling
+         when the GetCapabilities request failed, so that the surrounding
+         program can act accordingly.
+-03-30  Martin Schulze  <[email protected]>
+         * Extensions/wms/parser.py (WMSCapabilitiesParser.getLayerSRS):
+         Adjusted the getLayerSRS method to return the list of SRSes
+         extracted from <SRS> elements instead of <BoundingBox> elements.
+         Added a bit of documentation as well.
+         (WMSCapabilitiesParser.checkLayerSRS): Removed integrity test
+         since it was only implemented due to a misunderstanding.
+         * Extensions/wms/test/test_parser.py
+         (TestWMSCapabilitiesParser.test_LayerSRS): Adjust the tests to
+         reflect the corrected interpretation of the standard: i.e. a layer
+         does not have to define a BoundingBox for all SRSes it supports.
+         Hence the <SRS></SRS> specification is authoritative, not the list
+         of BoundingBoxes.
+         (TestWMSCapabilitiesParser.test_BoundingBoxes): Added a new test
+         to ensure None is returned for a non-existing SRS.
+         (TestWMSCapabilitiesParser.test_grok): Removed test_grok method
+         since it is not applicable anymore.  Listing more SRSes in <SRS>
+         elements is valid according to the specs.
+-03-26  Bernhard Reiter <[email protected]>
+         * README: Nicer formatting of text. Improved descriptions.
+         Reflected wxWidgets name change.
+         * Thuban/UI/about.py: Extended copyright to 2004 and added
+         information about the thuban-devel mailinglist.
+-03-24  Martin Schulze  <[email protected]>
+         * Extensions/wms/capabilities.py: Renamed the class to contain
+         'WMS', also added a linebreak where required
+         * Extensions/wms/parser.py: Finally added the XML parser for the
+         GetCapabilities response.
+         * Extensions/wms/test/sample.xml: Adjusted the sample file so that
+         <SRS> elements match the <BoundingBox> elements, except for the
+         layer 'beschriftung'.
+         * Extensions/wms/test/test_parser.py: Encode non-ascii strings
+         since Python uses unicode strings internally, otherwise
+         comparisons will fail.  Removed tests for getLayerBBoxSRS() since
+         the SRS will be calculated anyway and this method is obsoleted by
+         getLayerSRS().  Denote SRS as strings and not as cardinal numbers.
+         Move loading the sample file into the setUp method.  Added a test
+         for finding the integrity problem in the sample response.
+         Improved formatting.
+         * Extensions/wms/domutils.py: Added convenience routines for
+         handling of Document Object Model (DOM) nodes.
+         * Extensions/wms/test/test_domutils.py: Added a test for the
+         domutils module
+-03-19  Martin Schulze  <[email protected]>
+         * Extensions/wms/test/test_parser.py (TestWMSCapabilitiesParser):
+         Moved path detection and adding into a module of its own,
+         adjustpath, which exports thubandir as main Thuban directory.
+         * Extensions/wms/test/test_ogclib.py (TestWMSLib): Moved path
+         detection and adding into a module of its own, adjustpath, which
+         exports thubandir as main Thuban directory.  Reorganised the
+         module in order to support the SkipTest feature for Thuban test
+         cases.
+         * Extensions/wms/test/adjustpath.py: Moved path detection and
+         adding into a module of its own.
+-03-18  Martin Schulze  <[email protected]>
+         * Extensions/wms/test/test_parser.py: Added another test for
+         checking whether the WMS XML parser (to be implemented) returns
+         the information we expect.  This requires a sample WMS WML file
+         (sample.xml) which has been extracted from the frida server and
+         "improved" manually.
+         * Extensions/wms/test/test_ogclib.py: Added legacy code to add the
+         main Thuban directory to the path in order to be able to import
+         random modules.  Adjusted the PyOGCLib detection to reuse the
+         information gathered.  Also added a note about the PYTHONPATH
+         environment variable.
+         * Extensions/wms/test/test_ogclib.py: The format specification is
+         a mime-type, not a graphic format, hence image/jpeg wou ld be the
+         proper format and not JPEG.  We'll also have to take care of the
+         encoding of / as %2F.
+-03-16  Martin Schulze  <[email protected]>
+         * Extensions/wms/test/test_ogclib.py: Added a (hopefully)
+         comprehensive test for the getMapURL method, built compare URLs
+         according to the documentation in OGC 01-068r3
+         * Extensions/wms/capabilities.py (WMSCapabilities): Added the
+         class WMSCapabilities to manage capabilites, will incorporate
+         parsing the capabilities response and provide details for other
+         classes.
+-03-12  Bernhard Herzog  <[email protected]>
+         Support views in addition to normal tables in the postgis
+         shapestore
+         * Thuban/Model/postgisdb.py
+         (PostGISShapeStore._fetch_table_information): Add a fallback for
+         the case where the table name is not in the geometry_columns
+         table.  This is usually the case for views.  Also, set
+         self.shapestore here.
+         (PostGISShapeStore.ShapeType): No need to query the database all
+         the time.  The shape type is now determined in
+         _fetch_table_information
+         * test/postgissupport.py (PostgreSQLServer.new_postgis_db)
+         (PostgreSQLServer.get_static_data_db, PostGISDatabase.__init__):
+         New parameter to specify views.
+         (PostGISDatabase.has_data): Also compare the views.  New views
+         parameter
+         (PostGISDatabase.initdb): Create the views.
+         (PostgreSQLServer.get_default_static_data_db): Add the v_landmarks
+         view
+         * test/test_postgis_db.py
+         (TestPostGISShapestorePointFromViews): New.  Test a
+         PostGISShapeStore with a view
+         (TestPostGISShapestorePointOIDAsGIDColumn.setUp): Pass the name of
+         the geometry_column explicitly to test whether that works
+-03-12  Bernhard Herzog  <[email protected]>
+         Final step for explicit id/geometry columns: Loading and saving
+         * Resources/XML/thuban-1.1.dtd: New.  Derived from thuban-1.0.dtd
+         with the following changes:
+         (dbshapesource): Two new attributes id_column and geometry_column
+         * Thuban/Model/save.py (SessionSaver.write): Use the new dtd
+         (SessionSaver.write_session): Use the new namespace
+         (SessionSaver.write_data_containers): Write the new dbshapesource
+         parameters
+         * Thuban/Model/load.py (SessionLoader.__init__): New namespace for
+         the new file format version
+         (SessionLoader.start_dbshapesource): Handle the new db parameters

+         (SaveSessionTest.test_save_postgis): Update the NonConnectionStore
+         mock object to provide a working IDColumn method.
+         * test/test_load_1_0.py: New.  Copy of the test_load.py before

+         paramters
+-03-11  Bernhard Herzog  <[email protected]>
+         Next step for explicit id/geometry columns: User interaction
+         * Thuban/UI/dbdialog.py (ChooseDBTableDialog.__init__): Rework how
+         the dialog is constructed. Add combo boxes to select id and
+         geometry column.  Rename some instance variables.
+         (ChooseDBTableDialog.GetTable): Return id and geometry column
+         names
+         (ChooseDBTableDialog.OnTableSelect): New. Event handler for
+         selections in the table list
+         * Thuban/UI/mainwindow.py (MainWindow.AddDBLayer): Use id_column
+         and geometry_column
+         * Thuban/Model/session.py (Session.OpenDBShapeStore): Add the new
+         parameters for id_column and geometry column of PostGISShapeStore
+         here as well.

+         (_raw_type_map): New. Map raw PostgreSQL type ints to thuban types
+         (PostGISConnection.GeometryTables): Use a better query to
+         determine which relations in the database might be usable for
+         shapestores.  Now supports views as well but is more PostgreSQL
+         specific
+         (PostGISConnection.table_columns): New. Somewhat experimental
+         method to let the db dialogs provide lists of columns to users so
+         that they can select id and geometry columns.
+         (PostGISTable.__init__): The default value of the id_column
+         parameter is now None it still means "gid" effectively, though.
+         (PostGISTable.IDColumn): New introspection method to return a
+         column object for the id column
+         (PostGISShapeStore.GeometryColumn): New introspection method to
+         return a column object for the geometry column
+         * test/test_postgis_db.py
+         (TestPostGISConnection.test_gis_tables_non_empty):
+         Removed. Subsumed by the new:
+         (TestPostGISConnection.test_gis_tables_with_views_and_tables):
+         New. Tes the GeometryTables and table_columns methods with actual
+         tables and views.
+         (PointTests.test_id_column, PointTests.test_geometry_column):
+         New. tests for the new methods.
+         (TestPostGISShapestorePoint.setUp)
+         (TestPostGISShapestorePointSRID.setUp)
+         (TestPostGISShapestorePointExplicitGIDColumn.setUp): Fill the
+         instance variables needed by the new tests
+-03-11  Bernhard Herzog  <[email protected]>
+         * Thuban/UI/classgen.py (GenQuantilesPanel.GetList): The row
+         numbers given to ReadValue are ordinals.
+-03-11  Bernhard Herzog  <[email protected]>
+         Elimiate the requirement for PostGIS tables to have a column
+         called "gid".
+         * Thuban/Model/postgisdb.py (PostGISTable.__init__): New parameter
+         id_column to specify which column to use to identify rows.  Also
+         new instance variables id_column and quoted_id_column
+         (PostGISTable.RowIdToOrdinal, PostGISTable.RowOrdinalToId)
+         (PostGISTable.ReadRowAsDict, PostGISTable.ReadValue)
+         (PostGISTable.SimpleQuery): Use the id column name provided to the
+         constructor instead of "gid"
+         (PostGISShapeStore.__init__): New parameter id_column analogously
+         to PostGISTable.__init__.  This parameter is simply passed through
+         to the base class constructor
+         (PostGISShapeStore._create_col_from_description): Fix typo in
+         doc-string
+         (PostGISShapeStore.Shape, PostGISShapeStore.AllShapes)
+         (PostGISShapeStore.ShapesInRegion): Use the id column name
+         provided to the constructor instead of "gid"
+         * test/postgissupport.py
+         (PostgreSQLServer.get_default_static_data_db): New static table
+         landmarks_point_id with an id column != "gid.  Update the comments
+         a bit.
+         (skip_if_addgeometrycolumn_does_not_use_quote_ident): Fix typo in
+         doc-
+         (upload_shapefile): New parameter gid_column to use a name other
+         than "gid" for the column to store the shape ids
+         * test/test_postgis_db.py (TableTests): New.  Mixin-class
+         containing all tests previously in TestPostGISTable.  The actual
+         tests are the same but the code is a bit more configurable to
+         allow for different id columns etc.
+         (TestPostGISTable): Derive from TableTests now for the actual
+         tests.
+         (TestPostGISTableExplicitGIDColumn): New. Like TestPostGISTable
+         except that it the landmarks_point_id table to test the id_column
+         parameter
+         (PointTests): Extend the doc-string
+         (TestPostGISShapestorePointExplicitGIDColumn)
+         (TestPostGISShapestorePointOIDAsGIDColumn): New classes derived
+         from PointTests to test the explicit id_column parameter.  One
+         tests with the name of the column holding the shape ids, the other
+         uses PostgreSQL's OID column.  For the latter a number of methods
+         have to be overwritten to make them independent of the actual id
+         values.
+-03-08  Silke Reimer  <[email protected]>
+         Update debian directory:
+         * debian/changelog: Added new version.
+         * deiban/rules: Updated management of patches (with cbds)
+         * debian/control: Added cbds to dependencies
+         * debian/patches/*: New. Adds better support for patches of thuban in
+                         debian
+         * debian/menu: Syntax of menu changed slightly
+         * debian/setup.py.patch: removed because it has been moved to
+                         debian/patechs/setup.py.patch
+-02-26  Bernhard Herzog  <[email protected]>
+         Create the Doc/technotes directory for text files with information
+         for developers
+         * Doc/technotes/README: New. README for the technotes
+         * Doc/technotes/coding_guidelines.txt: New. Coding guidelines for
+         Thuban
+         * Doc/technotes/release_process.txt: New. Used to be
+         HOWTO-Release.  Now slightly adapted to technote formatting style.
+         * HOWTO-Release: Removed.  It's contents are now in
+         Doc/technotes/release_process.txt
+-02-25  Bernhard Herzog  <[email protected]>
+         * libraries/thuban/wxproj.cpp (get_wx_version): New.  Return the
+         version of wxWindows the module was compiled with so we can check
+         that against the wxPython version.
+         * Thuban/version.py (thuban_branch, thuban_release): New variables
+         controlling which and how Thuban versions are shown.  See the
+         comments for details.
+         (verify_versions): Also check that the wx version that wxproj is
+         compiled against matches that of the wxPython we use at runtime
+-02-20  Bernhard Herzog  <[email protected]>
+         * Extensions/wms/wms.py (epsg_code_to_projection): Use
+         get_system_proj_file to read the epsg projections.  The old way

+         harder and forces a collection when the interpreter terminates)
+         (load_session): Call the handler's Destroy method to make sure
+         that it gets garbage collected early. Otherwise it will be
+         collected very late if at all and it holds some references to e.g.

+         Tweak the usage of the sqlite database to make common use cases

+         * Thuban/UI/baserenderer.py
+         (BaseRenderer.draw_shape_layer_incrementally): Use the ReadValue

+         * test/test_viewport.py (ViewPortTest.setUp): Also subscribe to
+         the TITLE_CHANGED messages
+         (ViewPortTest.test_forwarding_title_changed): New test to check
+         whether the viewport forwards the map's TITLE_CHANGED messages
+         (TestViewportWithPostGIS.tearDown): Call the map's Destroy method
+         after the port's because the latter may require a still functional
+         map.
+-10-06  Bernhard Herzog  <[email protected]>
+         * Thuban/UI/application.py (ThubanApplication.maps_changed): Add
+         doc-string
+-10-06  Bernhard Herzog  <[email protected]>
+         * test/test_viewport.py (ViewPortTest.setUp)
+         (SimpleViewPortTest.test_init_with_size): Move the test for the
+         initial size as a constructor parameter from ViewPortTest.setUp
+         method to a new separate test in SimpleViewPortTest.
+-10-06  Bernhard Herzog  <[email protected]>
+         * test/test_viewport.py (MockView): New class derived from
+         ViewPort with a mock implementation of GetTextExtent to be used in
+         the test cases
+         (ViewPortTest.setUp): Use MockView instead of ViewPort
+         * Thuban/UI/viewport.py (ViewPort.GetTextExtent): Turn this method
+         into what would be a "pure virtual function" in C++: always raise
+         NotImplementedError. Mock implementations for test cases don't
+         belong into the real code
+-10-02  Bernhard Herzog  <[email protected]>
+         * test/test_layer.py (TestLayer.test_empty_layer): Explicitly
+         close the dbf file we create so that it's contents have been

+         libraries/shapelib/shapefil.h, libraries/shapelib/dbfopen.c:
+         Update to shapelib 1.2.10
+-10-01  Jan-Oliver Wagner <[email protected]>
+         * Thuban/UI/tree.py, Thuban/UI/main.py: Remove the #! line as
+         it annoys lintian which warns about these files not being
+         executable. The #! isn't necessary here since if you absolutely
+         must execute them you can always say "python <filename>".
+-09-26  Bernhard Herzog  <[email protected]>
+         * Thuban/Model/classgen.py (GenQuantiles0): Removed since it's
+         only used in GREAT-ER but not used in Thuban itself. When GREAT-ER
+         is ported to a newer the import will fail, so it should be noticed
+         immediately that this function is gone.
+         Fixes RT#1919
+-09-26  Bernhard Herzog  <[email protected]>
+         Add a DTD for the projection files and make thuban write valid

+         'projectionlist' as the name in the document type declaration just
+         as it is done now in the files thuban would write
+         (sample_projfile, sample_projfile_data): Fix spelling of
+         "Mercator"
+         (TestProjFile.doTestWrite): Validate the written and the expected
+         XML data
+         (TestProjFile): Derive from ValidationTest so that we can run xml
+         validation tests
+-09-24  Bernhard Herzog  <[email protected]>
+         * Thuban/UI/renderer.py (ExportRenderer.render_legend): Do not
+         modify the list returned by map.Layers() in place since it is the
+         actual list of layers used by the map.
+-09-23  Jan-Oliver Wagner <[email protected]>
+         * Doc/manual/thuban-manual.xml: Added subsection to chapter
+         Extensions to describe the extensions coming with the Thuban
+         standard package (gns2shp and importAPR).
+-09-23  Bernhard Herzog  <[email protected]>
+         * libraries/thuban/wxproj.cpp (project_point): if there's an
+         inverse but no forward projection, convert to degrees after
+         applying the inverse projection. Fixes RT#2096
+         * test/test_wxproj.py: New. Test cases for wxproj.so. One test
+         implicitly tests for the fix to RT#2096
+         * test/support.py (FloatComparisonMixin.assertFloatSeqEqual):
+         Check that the sequences have the same lengths
+         * Resources/Projections/defaults.proj (Geographic projection): Use

+-09-22  Bernhard Herzog  <[email protected]>
+         * test/support.py (initthuban): Make sure to unset the LANG env.
+         var. so that tests that compare translated strings work. Solves RT
+         #2094
+-09-22  Jan-Oliver Wagner <[email protected]>
+         Small improvement of APR import.
+         * Extensions/importAPR/test/test_apr.py (aprTest.test_LClass):
+         Added tests for text-ranges.
+         * Extensions/importAPR/apr.py (APR_LClass.GetThubanRange): Now
+         returns a string object if the range is based on text.
+         * Extensions/importAPR/importAPR.py (import_apr_dialog): Unified

+         directory actually exists, so that setup.py works with a fresh CVS
+         checkout
+-09-12  Jan-Oliver Wagner <[email protected]>

+         (ChooseDBTableDialog.__set_properties): Removed. Setting the
