  "releaseNotes": "v1.1.0 adds a text layer for CrossRef titles and abstracts. Nothing that existed changes.\n\nAdded:\n- `PlainText(s)`: a title fragment as plain Unicode text. Tags are removed, entities decoded, subscripts and MathML formulas converted, and the layout whitespace publishers add around markup tidied.\n- `(*Message).FullTitle()` and `(*Message).AlternateTitles()`: the title and subtitle as plain text (the subtitle left out when empty or already in the title), and the record's other titles. No language is guessed.\n- `HTMLAbstract(s)` and `(*Message).HTMLAbstract()`: a JATS abstract as HTML that Invenio RDM's sanitizer keeps, with MathML as TeX in `\\( ... \\)`, the leading \"Abstract\" heading and copyright text dropped, attributes stripped and links limited to http, https, mailto and relative addresses.\n- `Normalizer` and `NewNormalizer(path)`: the same conversions with an override of the embedded symbol table (`symbols.json`). A Normalizer never changes after it is built, so it can be shared between goroutines.\n- `Warning` and its codes (`parse-fallback`, `script-unmapped`, `math-linear`, `math-unconverted`, `multiple-titles`): what could not be converted cleanly, returned beside the best text available.\n- A user guide (docs/text_normalization.md), a package overview and runnable examples.\n\nNotes:\n- Whitespace around markup is a heuristic, chosen on real CrossRef records; the guide lists the rules and their known limits.\n- The TeX in an abstract needs MathJax, or another renderer that reads the `\\( ... \\)` delimiters, on the page that shows it.\n- The tests use captured CrossRef responses in testdata/ and run offline."
