I've gone ahead and cut Meliae 0.2.1 as a final release. Primarily
bugfixes, and some small quality of life improvements versus 0.2.0.

Many thanks to a couple new contributors, who helped get things running
more smoothly on a couple of platforms.

excerpt from CHANGES.txt:

Meliae 0.2.1
############

:0.2.1: 2010-07-20

* When dumping a ``PyFrame`` look at the function object for
  ``co_name``, so you don't have to wander through the references to
  get their yourself. (Andrew Bennetts)

* Fixes for the simple regex parser (w/o simplejson). However,
  simplejson is still recommended, because it is both faster and more
  accurate (decodes unicode escapes, etc). (John Arbash Meinel)

* ``loader.load()`` now defaults to computing parents and collapsing
  instance dicts. It does mean that loading will be a bit slower, and
  consume more memory, but it is almost always what you need to do
  first anyway. (John Arbash Meinel)


Meliae 0.2.1rc1
###############

:0.2.1rc1: 2010-06-30

* Avoid calling ``PyType_Type.tp_traverse`` when the argument is not a
  heap-class. There is an assert that gets tripped if you are running a
  debug build (or something to do with how Fedora builds its python).
  (John Arbash Meinel, #586122)

* Flush the file handle before exiting. We were doing it at the Python
  layer, but that might not translate into the ``FILE*`` object.
  (John Arbash Meinel, #428165)

* Handle some issues when using Pyrex 0.9.8.4. It was treating
  ``<unsigned long>`` as casting the object pointer, not as a Python
  level "extract an integer". However, assignment to an ``cdef unsigned
  long`` does the right thing. (John Arbash Meinel)

* Tweak some memory performance issues (Gary Poster, #581918)
