Shed Skin 0.0.15

[Mark Dufour]

Thanks to those that sent in bug reports. This is really, really useful.

I already released 0.0.16, with the following improvements:

-added frozenset
-time.sleep now works on WIN32
-constant-string expressions and __doc__ attributes are made into nice
C++ comments
-added --nowrap optimization option to ss.py (disables checking for
negative indices)
-several minor bug-fixes reported by users of 0.0.15


Thanks,
Mark.
