[Darren Dale <dsdale24@xxxxxxxxx>]

I added support for customizable default units today. Yesterday I did a bit
of work to use numpy's sphinx extensions so we can pass through numpy's
docstrings and document the API with sphinx, I changed the documentation
decorator a little bit, extended the tutorial, implemented the regular
expression to properly convert integer powers to unicode superscript
characters, squashed a bunch of bugs, and there are some other improvements
I'm forgetting at the moment. I posted some new snapshots at
packages.python.org/quantities, please give them a try and let me know if
you find any problems.

I would like to post a request for comment at numpy discussion in the next
couple of days. I dont think I'm going to make any more changes to the
codebase for now, and I'm not planning to tag any new releases, but I need
to put a page together discussing how the package is designed. When thats
done, and the snapshots have seen some use, I'll make an announcement on the
numpy mailing list, hopefully next monday.
