[Darren Dale <dsdale24@xxxxxxxxx>]

I just wanted to give a heads up that quantities-0.5.0 has been
released. All of the reported bugs have been addressed. This version
will be compatible with numpy-1.3 and later. A few new features are
included:

* you can do pq.m + pq.ft now
* Pickling is supported
* unicode is disabled by default, and is not set at compile time.
Instead, you can add a line to your ~/.pythonrc.py:

quantities_unicode = True

or you can change the setting on the fly:

from quantities import markup
markup.config.use_unicode = True # or False

*I've also become a bit more comfortable working with project
management at launchpad. Project management should be a bit more
cohesive in the future.

Thank you John and Tony for important contributions and feedback.

Cheers,
Darren
