0.8.1 release

[Marek Szuba]

Hello gang,

Version 0.8.1 has finally been tagged! This means it's time to package
and upload it. I've already taken care of the source package (indeed,
that one is already on our Google Code site) and all the Linux ones,
then again there is still a long way to go. Titus, would you be able to
use your Pony-Build system to produce not only eggs for the platforms
you support but also other packages, as presently available for 0.8.0?

There is also the subject of an official announcement. Chris, would you
like to do that or shall I compile and post a list of changes?

Cheers,

For 32- and 64-bit Windows, use 'bdist_msi' where available (Python
2.6+) and 'bdist_wininst' elsewhere. For Mac OS X, use 'bdist_dumb' and
rename the resulting tarball in accordance with the convention of
existing files; if you use Fink you will also have to rename some of
the eggs.
