New release of Sardana 2.1.0 (Jul16)

[Zbigniew Reszela]

Hi all,

The new Sardana release 2.1.0 (corresponding to the Jul16 milestone) is
now available to download from PyPI (source and windows installer):

    http://pypi.python.org/pypi/sardana/2.1.0

To install from source, download the tarball, untar and run:

    % python setup.py install

The documentation is available at:

    http://www.sardana-controls.org

The main improvements since sardana 2.0.0 (aka Jan16) are:

- Make Sardana compatible with Taurus4. Since Taurus4 introduces some             
backwards incompatibilities (http://sourceforge.net/p/tauruslib/wiki/TEP14)       
Sardana implements a compatibility layer in order to support Taurus v3 and v4.  
Taurus4 deprecation warnings are present. (#452)                                  
- Add itango dependency to make Sardana compatible with the latest                
PyTango 9.2.0. Sardana CLI client (spock) has been adapted. (#487)                
- Re-introduce a possibility to decode repeat parameters for macros that use      
only one repeat parameter, located at the end of the definition, from a flat      
list parameters - grouping is not necessary. (#491)                               
- Add an optional block output of the scan records in spock - the new records  
can be printed on top of the previous ones. (#492)                                
- Fix sporadic "already involved in operation" errors in the scans when using  
0D experimental channels. (#104)                                                  
- Improve the sequencer behavior. (#483, #485)                                   
- Improve the documentation. (#489, #490, #491)                                   
- Solve other bugs (#499, #493, #488, #485, #484, #483, #482, #478,         
 #418, #405)
