This release dedication is here to remind you that Hope is always important.
Plus, the song of that name by Pink Floyd also deserves a dedication.

Project organization:

• Add a deprecation warning to po4a-translate and po4a-updatepo stating that po4a is the prefered interface.
• Rewrite the po4a-gettextize documentation (Debian's #1016695) [Mt].
• Rewrite the intro of po4a doc, and add a Quick start tutorial [Mt].

gettextization:

• Rework completely the deduplication of msgids introduced in v0.67.

  • Instead of adding spaces and require the users to merge them manually after an extremely painful analysis of the produced file, automatically merge the msgstr together.

  • The result will look something like:

    #, fuzzy
    msgid "hello"
    msgstr ""
    "#-#-#-#-# file reference 1 (type: Title #) #-#-#-#-#\n"
    "HELLO\n"
    "#-#-#-#-# file reference 2 (type: Title ##) #-#-#-#-#\n"
    "SUBTITLE\n"

  • Closes Debian's #1017742, that was asking for help in the review [Mt].

Markdown:

• Allow lists to start the line with no leading spaces before the '-' sign (Github's #378). This uncovers a bug in our test suite that was enforcing the buggy behavior :( [Mt]
• Properly deal with fenced div blocks (Github's #381) [Mt]

Man:

• Bold text should never be wrapped as groff seems to reset the font on new line (Debian's #1016753) [Mt].
• Properly deal with comments around macro definitions [Mt] (Debian's #1017837).
