An implementation of the XDG Base Directory Specification in Python
The encoding of README.rst is now specified when it is opened in setup.py, to resolve an issue encountered when installing xdg with Nix.
With this patch release, xdg now builds paths using the value of $HOME instead of ~.
This major release of xdg drops support for Python 2.
With this major release, xdg now uses platform native directory separators; / on POSIX and \\ on Windows. The XDG specification doesn't say anything about the portability of directory separators, but this change makes xdg more useful on Windows.
