The latest version of rtf2xml, 1.32, represents the final release. This release is fully functional with no known bugs.

No more work will be committed to this project except to fix small bugs.

The script rtff2xml has a new beta release, 1.3. This release will be the very last release of this script. Once I determine that the beta release has no bugs, I will make it the last regular release.

Version 1.3 fixes some minor bugs with unicode. Besides that, it includes a Relax schema for validating converted documents. These minor changes reflect the difference between version 1.2 and 1.3.

The script rtf2xml has a new beta release, 1.1b, that fixes several bugs with unicode. This version also adds exceptions as classes, which will only interest python programs who want to implement code into another python program.
