The hangindent "issue" seems to be caused by line 160 in xml2rfc 2.3.9 inxml2rfc/writers/raw_txt.py:

157 elif style == 'hanging':
158 bullet = element.attrib.get('hangText', '')
159 if len(bullet) < hangIndent:
160 # Insert whitespace up to hangIndent
161 bullet = bullet.ljust(hangIndent)
162 else:
163 # Insert a single space
164 bullet += ' '

Summary of differences, taken from the given link:

• The ToC does not start on a new page in v2. (Don't know if that is a setting).

• The underscore settings of spanx elements, changed from bla to -bla-, I like the latter, but still its a change.

• In section "Multiple paragraphs in a list.", I fake multiple paragraphs in a list with a . In v1 the new "para" is indented, in v2 it is not indented (line 787).

• If you look for 'A lowercase roman list.' you see that '' isn't supported (line 810).

• If you look for 'An uppercase roman list.' you see that, "' in v1 displays as "(1) Item1" and in v2 as "(1 )Item1" (line 816).

• '' is allowed in v1 (was a hidden feature, but still). It shows "A. First item", in v2 it convers to "%C.First item" and a warning (line 850).

• If you look for "List with a sublist with a paragraph above the sublist", you get a nice indented sublist with A. and B. as list items. In v2 it isn't indented and the listitems are numbered with a. and b. (line 878).

From d7c7e99:

Make in a hangindent list reset the indentation to the hang-indent, even if the bullet text is longer than the hang-indent. Addresses issue #70.

From 98f4e12:

Change spanx emphasis back to this instead of -this-, matching the v1 behaviour. Addresses issue #70.

Checking the behaviour for hangindent lists, the current behaviour matches what's desired, in 2.3.11.

Checking the various formatting specifications mentioned, %i, %C, (%d), now also work as expected (in 2.3.11)
