[Image-SIG] ANN: PIL 1.1.5 beta 3 (february 8, 2005)

[Fredrik Lundh]

PIL 1.1.5 beta 3 (aka rc1) is now available from effbot.org:

    http://effbot.org/downloads#imaging

(look for Imaging-1.1.5b3.tar.gz.  no compiled windows versions yet;
stay tuned for updates)

Visible changes in this release include:

+ Don't crash in "quantize" method if the number of colors requested
  is larger than 256.  This release raises a ValueError exception;
  future versions may return a mode "RGB" image instead (reported
  by Richard Oudkerk).

+ Added WBMP read/write support (based on code by Duncan Booth).

For a list of other changes in 1.1.5, see this page:
