One of the important changes is escaping of the <matches> content -- so if you
crafted some custom action which uses it -- you must upgrade, or you
would be at a significant security risk.

- Fixes:
  Alan Jenkins
   * [8c38907] Removed 'POSSIBLE BREAK-IN ATTEMPT' from sshd filter to avoid
     banning due to misconfigured DNS. Close gh-64
  Yaroslav Halchenko
   * [83109bc] IMPORTANT: escape the content of <matches> (if used in
     custom action files) since its value could contain arbitrary
     symbols.  Thanks for discovery go to the NBS System security
     team
   * [0935566,5becaf8] Various python 2.4 and 2.5 compatibility fixes. Close gh-83
   * [b159eab] do not enable pyinotify backend if pyinotify < 0.8.3
   * [37a2e59] store IP as a base, non-unicode str to avoid spurious messages
     in the console. Close gh-91

- New features:
  David Engeset
   * [2d672d1,6288ec2] 'unbanip' command for the client + avoidance of touching
     the log file to take 'banip' or 'unbanip' in effect. Close gh-81, gh-86

- Enhancements:
   * [2d66f31] replaced uninformative "Invalid command" message with warning log
     exception why command actually failed
   * [958a1b0] improved failregex to "support" auth.backend = "htdigest"
   * [9e7a3b7] until we make it proper module -- adjusted sys.path only if
     system-wide run
   * [f52ba99] downgraded "already banned" from WARN to INFO level. Closes gh-79
   * [f105379] added hints into the log on some failure return codes (e.g. 0x7f00
     for this gh-87)
   * Various others: travis-ci integration, script to run tests
     against all available Python versions, etc
