0.4.1
======
 * Added TornadoChannelSet and TornadoChannel for compatibility with Tornado server/framework.
 * Added no_proxy_as_attrs to SaClassDef to optionally use Arrays instead of
       ArrayCollections on client side, and updated SqlAlchemy example.
 * Added amfastlib Flash client lib for use with SqlAlchemy.
 * Added support for PyAmf 0.5.

0.4.0
======
 * Added GaeChannelSet and GaeChannel to work with Google App Engine.
 * Added live Google App Engine demo app (http://amfastchat.appspot.com/flash/chat.html).
 * Added DjangoChannel to work with Django framework.
 * Published messages are now dispatched to clients that subscribe
   after the message is published (assuming the message has not expired yet).
 * Added ConnectionManager and SubscriptionManager classes.
  - Sub-class these classes to customize how connection and message data is
    persisted between requests.
  - Built-in managers allow data to be stored in memory, Memcache,
    SQL database (via SqlAlchemy), or Google DataStore.
 * Added HTTP Streaming to CherryPyChannel
 * Added CherryPyChannelSet, TwistedChannelSet, and WsgiChannelSet to
   work better with the respective frameworks.
 * Added notify_connection attribute to ChannelSet to avoid un-needed overhead
   when long-polling or streaming is not being used.

0.3.5
======
 * Fixed AttributeError in TwistedChannel (ticket: 21).
 * Fixed setuptools bootstrapping (ticket: 22).
 * Fixed ChannelSet.__iter__ returning incorrect iterator (ticket: 23).
 * Fixed Visual Studio 2008 compatability (ticket: 24).

0.3.4
======
 * Fixed some thread synchronization issues (ticket: 19).
 * Improved long polling performance for threaded channels. 

0.3.3
======
 * Allow Target objects to return twisted.defer.Deferred objects when using TwistedChannel.
 * Eliminated Channel.max_interval. Set Channel.wait_interval to a non-zero value instead.
 * Ignore 0x11 AMF3 marker byte during AMF3 decoding. 

0.3.2
======
 * Added http long-polling and http streaming channels.

0.3.1
======
 * Added ez_setup.py script for installing uuid.

0.3.0
======

remoting
---------
 * Producer/Consumer messaging via HTTP polling.
 * Channels and ChannelSets allow resources to be exposed in multiple ways.
 * Built in Channels for CherryPy, Twisted Web, and straight-up WSGI.
 * Easy to configure authentication for NetConnection and RemoteObject.
 * Connection objects hold session attributes tied to Flex client id.
 * Customizable Endpoints to encode/decode messages with external encoding/decoding libraries.
 * PyAmfEndpoint to encode/decode messages with pure Python, with no C compiler dependencies.

encode/decode
--------------
 * Read and write to file-like-objects or strings (using strings is much faster).
 * Automatic type conversion:
     * Use amfast.class_def.ClassDef.encode_types to convert object attributes to custom types before encoding.
     * Use amfast.class_def.ClassDef.decode_types to convert object attribute to custom types after decoding.
 * amfast.class_def.as_types.AsProxy and amfast.class_def.as_types.AsNoProxy allow overriding 
     'use_collections' and 'use_proxies' settings for a individual objects.
 * readExternal and writeExternal methods of the IEXTERNALIZABLE interface accept different parameters
     to make custom encodings easier.
 * amfast.encoder.Encoder and amfast.decoder.Decoder:
     Wrappers around amfast.encode and amfast.decode, so you don't need to pass the same arguments every
     time you encode or decode.
