This cache-expiry behavior is not + guaranteed in the public interface and may change in the future. To improve + performance in the case where transient references to the same time zones + are repeatedly created but no strong reference is continuously held, a + smaller "strong value" cache was also added. Weak value cache implemented by + @cs-cordero (gh pr #672, #801), strong cache added by + Gökçen Nurlu (gh issue #691, gh pr #761) + + +Bugfixes +-------- + +- Added time zone inference when initializing an ``rrule`` with a specified + ``UNTIL`` but without an explicitly specified ``DTSTART``; the time zone + of the generated ``DTSTART`` will now be taken from the ``UNTIL`` rule. + Reported by @href (gh issue #652). Fixed by @absreim (gh pr #693). +- Fixed an issue where ``parser.parse`` would raise ``Decimal``-specific errors + instead of a standard ``ValueError`` if certain malformed values were parsed + (e.g. ``NaN`` or infinite values). Reported and fixed by + @amureki (gh issue #662, gh pr #679). +- Fixed issue in ``parser`` where a ``tzinfos`` call explicitly returning + ``None`` would throw a ``ValueError``. + Fixed by @parsethis (gh issue #661, gh pr #681) +- Fixed incorrect parsing of certain dates earlier than 100 AD when repesented + in the form "%B.%Y.%d", e.g. "December.0031.30". (gh issue #687, pr #700) +- Add support for ISO 8601 times with comma as the decimal separator in the + ``dateutil.parser.isoparse`` function. (gh pr #721) +- Changed handling of ``T24:00`` to be compliant with the standard. ``T24:00`` + now represents midnight on the *following* day. + Fixed by @cheukting (gh issue #658, gh pr #751) +- Fixed an issue where ``isoparser.parse_isotime`` was unable to handle the + ``24:00`` variant representation of midnight. (gh pr #773) +- Added support for more than 6 fractional digits in `isoparse`. + Reported and fixed by @jayschwa (gh issue #786, gh pr #787). +- Added 'z' (lower case Z) as valid UTC time zone in isoparser. + Reported by @cjgibson (gh issue #820). Fixed by @Cheukting (gh pr #822) +- Fixed a bug with base offset changes during DST in ``tzfile``, and refactored + the way base offset changes are detected. Originally reported on + StackOverflow by @MartinThoma. (gh issue #812, gh pr #810) +- Fixed error condition in ``tz.gettz`` when a non-ASCII timezone is passed on + Windows in Python 2.7.
