All,

It is my pleasure to announce the release of Rtree 0.6.0.  

http://pypi.python.org/pypi/Rtree/

Source code and a complete Windows self-installer (with libspatialindex 1.5.0) 
are provided.  Version 0.6.0 requires the use of libspatialindex 1.5.0, and it 
will not work without it.

The following updates were made for this release:

- 0.6.0 relies on libspatialindex 1.5.0+.
- Intersection and nearest methods return iterators over results instead of
  lists.
- Number of results for nearest() defaults to 1.
- libsidx C library of 0.5.0 removed and included in libspatialindex
- objects="raw" to return the object sent in (for speed).
- .count() method to return the intersection count without the overhead 
  of returning a list. (thanks Leonard NorrgÄrd)
- Improved bulk loading performance
- Supposedly no memory leaks :)
- Many other performance tweaks (see docs).
- Bulk loader supports interleaved coordinates
- Leaf queries.  You can return the box and ids of the leaf nodes of the index. 
 
  Useful for visualization, etc.
- Many more docstrings, sphinx docs, etc

Howard, Brent, and Sean
