Hi All,

I'm happy to announce a new release major release of TestFixtures.
This release is 99% backwards compatible, but a lot has changed under the hood and there's some major new functionality, so thought it was time for a bump.

The big changes are:

- compare now uses a registry of comparers in the same way that
  unitest2's assertEquals does. You can register your own globally,
  register the default comparers for your own types and use a specific
  registry for a specific call to compare.

- The handling of timezones has been reworked in `test_datetime` again.
  (did anyone ever mention that timezones are hard ;-) )
  It feels more intuitive now, but it is backwards incompatible in
  the case where the `tzinfo` parameter to the `test_datetime`
  constructor was used.

  For details, read:

  http://packages.python.org/testfixtures/datetime.html#timezones

The package is on PyPI and a full list of all the links to docs, issue trackers and the like can be found here:

cheers,
