py lib 0.9.0: py.test, distributed execution, greenlets and more
======================================================================

Welcome to the 0.9.0 py lib release - a library aiming to 
support agile and test-driven python development on various levels. 

Main API/Tool Features: 

* py.test: cross-project testing tool with many advanced features
* py.execnet: ad-hoc code distribution to SSH, Socket and local sub processes
* py.magic.greenlet: micro-threads on standard CPython ("stackless-light")
* py.path: path abstractions over local and subversion files 
* rich documentation of py's exported API 
* tested against Linux, OSX and partly against Win32, python 2.3-2.5

All these features and their API have extensive documentation,
generated with the new "apigen", which we intend to make accessible
for other python projects as well.

within the PyPy project.
