necessary

RELEASE NOTES 0.19

* Drop support for Python 2.7, 3.5, and 3.6.
* Output changes:

  HTML5:

    Wrap groups of footnotes in an ``<aside>`` for easier styling.

    The CSS rule ``.footnote-list { display: contents; }`` can be used to

    restore the behaviour of custom CSS styles.

* After package installation, the CLI commands ``python -m docutils`` and

  ``docutils`` start the `generic command line front end tool`__.

  __ docs/user/tools.html#generic-command-line-front-end

* Support parsing "Markdown" input with 3rd party parsers

  myst_, pycmark_, or recommonmark_.

* The default values for the "pep-references", "rfc-base-url",

  and "python-home" `configuration settings`_ now use the "https:" scheme.

  The PEP-writer template's header is updated to fix links and

  resemble the header of official PEPs.
