3.1.0

This is mainly to get the master branch in sync with thedevelop branch. develop has been ahead for a while and the last commit on master was not stable.

We decided that since develop is working and passing all the tests, it is a good time for sync'ing and creating a new release.

@deepio integrated travis-ci so unit tests are running automatically now.

The master branch is blocked, so any progress in develop can be tested automatically and merged to master through pull requests.

3.0.0

New libmei release for compatibility with MEI 3.0.0+.

New XML Parser

This release features a new XML parser, PugiXML, which deprecates the old dependency on libxml2. PugiXML is distributed with libmei now, so no further dependencies are needed (except on Linux, where libuuid is still required).

As well, several notable feature additions and bug fixes are included:

• strict and lax importer modes are supported. Importing a MEI file in lax mode that features elements that were not included in a schema will no longer raise an exception. Rather, it will log a warning and import the element as a raw MeiElement object
• Python bindings are compatible with Python 3.

Thanks to @lpugin and @ifkarp for helping to prepare this release.

Initial Release

This is a good a time as any to actually create a release.
