+We are pleased to release Python-Markdown 2.3 which adds one new extension,
+remove an old extension, and now runs on both Python 2 and Python 3
+without running the 2to3 conversion tool. See the list of changes below for
+details.

+library will work in any version of Python lower than 2.6. As all supported
+Python versions include the ElementTree library, Python-Markdown no longer
+will try to import a third-party installation of ElementTree.
+
+* All classes are now "new-style" classes. In other words, all classes
+subclass from 'object'. While this is not likely to affect most users, 
+extension authors may need to make a few minor adjustments to their code.
 
 * "safe_mode" has been further restricted. Markdown formated links must be
 of a known whitelisted scheme when in "safe_mode" or the url is discarded.

 What's New in Python-Markdown 2.3
 ---------------------------------
 
-Added the [Adminition Extension] which implements [rST-style][rST] admonitions 
-to the Markdown syntax. However, be warned that this extension is experimental
-and the syntax and behavior is still subject to change. Please try it out and
-report bugs/improvements.
+* The entire code base now universally runs in Python 2 and Python 3 without
+any need for running the 2to3 conversion tool. This not only simplifies testing,
+but by using unicode_literals, results in more consistent behavior across
+Python versions. Additionally, the relative imports (made possible in Python 2
+via absolute_import) allows the entire library to more easily be embedded in a 
+subdirectory of another project. The various files within the library will 
+still import each other properly even though 'markdown' may not be in Python's
+root namespace.
+
+* Added the [Admonition Extension] which implements [rST-style][rST] 
+admonitions to the Markdown syntax. However, be warned that this extension 
+is experimental and the syntax and behavior is still subject to change. Please 
+try it out and report bugs/improvements.
