Release notes are:

Version 0.6.0 (10/25/11)
----------------------
- Performance enhancement to make all tools run in parallel in
individual threads
- Added the ADL tool for the identification of Audio Decision List
files
- Added options to process directories of files. When -i is set to a
directory -o must also be set to a directory.
The new -r option will process directories recursivelywhen -i is a
directory.
- added <filepath> element to FileInfo tool, updated fits_output.xsd
- Fixed bug in normalizing Exiftool format output for TIFFs. "TIFF
EXIF" is not output as "Tagged Image File Format"
- Fix to use <fileinfo>/<created> value for
<mix:GeneralCaptureInformation>/<mix:dateTimeCreated> when using -x
switch

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

By running the tools that FITS uses in parallel I am seeing
performance increases as high as 20-30%. I'm open to ideas of how to
change the behavior of the new directory processing option. If you
set -i to a a directory you must set -o to a directory. FITS XML
output files will be written to the -o location using the original
file name appended with .fits.xml. If you use -r to process all sub
directories and there are files with the same names the output file
will be overwritten.
