xlrd 0.8.0 released!

La Défense, le 22/08/2012

Hi

Congratulations for the work well done, and thanks for the help xlrd brings 
to my work.

I would like to keep up with the development but would like to know which 
is the repo to follow. The Python-Excel website points to 
https://github.com/python-excel/xlrd, but that one does not have a 0.8.0 
tag (or at least did not have one when I looked a few days ago, and 
I unfortunately can't check now, from work).

Merci

Hubert Holin
