Some new features of general interest:

* Ability to open resource files in data forks with FSOpenResourceFile()

* Ability to find paths to applications based on bundle ID, creator type,
  or app name with LSFindApplicationForInfo()

* Addition of Mac::InternetConfig, to look up and set IC information, Get 
  URLs (e.g., GetURL($url) will open the URL in your app of choice), etc.

Some important bugfixes are included as well, including the ability of FSp* 
routines to accept pathnames for files that don't exist.  A full test suite 
for Mac::Files was added as well (with more extensions to go).

I'll be posting some journal entries about this release of Mac::Carbon at 
http://use.perl.org/~pudge/journal this week, time permitting.

The ports of Mac::Apps::Launch, Mac::AppleEvents::Simple, and -- yes! -- 
Mac::Glue are basically done, with this release of Mac::Carbon, and are 
being prepared for release.
