-v4.4 24th March 2006
-  - The major number of the internal API has changed so it will be necessary
-    to regenerate all modules.
-  - This release introduces small incompatibilities that may affect handwritten
-    code.  See the documentation for the details.
-  - Module names specified with %Module and %CModule can now include periods to
-    denote a Python package structure.
-  - Namespaces can be split across multiple Python modules.

-  - C/C++ long and unsigned long types are now wrapped as Python long objects
-    rather than Python integer objects.
-  - C/C++ long long and unsigned long long types are now supported.
-  - unsigned short and unsigned int are now implemented as long objects instead
-    of integer objects.
-  - Classes can now be declared using the /External/ annotation and be defined
-    in another, unspecified, module.
-  - /TransferThis/ can now be used in non-factory methods to change the
-    ownership to a different C++ instance or to change it to Python.
-  - /Constrained/ can now be used with booleans.
-  - Added support for Python's buffer interface, %BIGetCharBufferCode,
-    %BIGetReadBufferCode, %BIGetSegCountCode and %BIGetWriteBufferCode.
-  - The "user" member has been added to the sipWrapper structure and can be
-    used for any purpose by handwritten code.
-  - Function argument names are now parsed, but otherwise ignored.
-  - The "explicit" keyword is now parsed, but otherwise ignored.
-  - Added the /DelayDtor/ class annotation which given more control over the
-    order in which instances are deleted when an application terminates.
-  - Added support for the SIP_PYTYPE pseudo-type that represents a Python
-    type object.
-  - Added support for ellipsis (ie. "...") in function arguments.  Any
-    remaining arguments will be gathered as a Python tuple.
-  - Add support for the /NoDerived/ annotation for Python class constructors
-    that have no C/C++ equivalent.
-  - The sipSelfWasArg boolean is now available to the %MethodCode of
-    non-abstract, virtual methods to indicate whether the class implementation
-    of the method rather than the virtual implementation should be called.
-    %MethodCode for non-abstract, virtual, protected methods must now call the
-    sipProtectVirt wrapper (rather than sipProtect).
-  - sipCanConvertToInstance(), sipConvertToInstance(),
-    sipForceConvertToInstance(), sipReleaseInstance(),
-    sipConvertFromInstance(), sipConvertFromNewInstance(),
-    sipCanConvertToMappedType(), sipConvertToMappedType(),
-    sipForceConvertToMappedType(), sipReleaseMappedType(),
-    sipConvertFromMappedType() and sipFindMappedType() have been added to the
-    SIP API.
-  - sipLong_AsUnsignedLong() has been added, primarily as a workaround for a
-    bug in Python v2.3.x and earlier.
-  - Added the 't', 'u', 'C' and 'D' format characters to sipParseResult().
-  - Added the 't', 'u', 'B', 'C' and 'D' format characters to sipBuildResult().
-  - Responsibility for interpreting and implementing the /Transfer/ and
-    /TransferBack/ annotations has been pushed down to %ConvertToTypeCode and
-    %ConvertFromTypeCode.  The generated type convertors sipForceConvertTo_*()
-    and sipConvertFrom_*() have been deprecated.
-  - Added the %SIPNoEmitters directive for PyQt4.
-  - Added support for the __hash__ Python special method.
-  - The __getitem__ Python special method no longer requires %MethodCode.
-  - All of the calls to Qt have been moved out of the sip module and into PyQt.
-    The generated sipconfig.py file no longer contains any Qt specific
-    information.  These changes mean that SIP can support PyQt v3 and v4 at the
-    same time.
-  - Static methods can now be defined as Qt slots.
-  - Removed SIP_BUILD from sip.h.
-  - The -c, -l, -q and -x flags to configure.py have been removed.

-    those raised by ActiveX controls) can be handled.

-    module.

-    detected when they occur.
