2013-04-25 Paul Boddie Added support for multiple property values, producing lists for collections of such values when parsing, and accepting lists of such values when writing.
     1 Introduction
     2 ------------
     3 
     4 The vContent distribution provides support for the parsing of the general file
     5 format described in RFCs 2445, 2425 and 2426, together with support for the
     6 more specialised iCalendar and vCalendar formats through the vCalendar module
     7 which applies certain data representation conversions. The vCard format is
     8 also supported, but merely through the general vContent module.

    10 Using the Modules
    11 -----------------
    12 
    13 The tests directory contains a number of demonstrations of parsing using the
    14 modules:
    15 
    16   test_calendar.py          A straightforward test of vCalendar parsing
    17   test_calendar_stream.py   A round-trip test of stream parsing and output
    18   test_card.py              A straightforward test of vCard parsing
    19   test_card_stream.py       A round-trip test of stream parsing and output

    31 New in vContent 0.2 (Changes since vContent 0.1)
    32 ------------------------------------------------
    33 
    34   * Added support for writing resources through a specific write method
    35     instead of using a stream, thus changing the iterwrite function's
    36     signature.
    37   * Added support for multiple property values, producing lists for
    38     collections of such values when parsing, and accepting lists of such
    39     values when writing.
