Subject: [ANN] RMagick 1.15.0

I've just uploaded RMagick 1.15.0 to RubyForge. There have been many changes
since the previous release. Here are the highlights:

o Added the fx method to the ImageList class. This is an interface to 
the -fx
  option to ImageMagick's convert and mogrify commands. See
  http://redux.imagemagick.org/script/fx.php for more information about fx.

o Added the wet_floor method to the Image class. This method creates a
  "wet floor" (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wet_floor) reflection of an 
image.

o Added the polaroid method to the Image class. This special effect method
  makes your image look like an old Polaroid photograph. This built in 
method
  was inspired by the RMagick tutorial "The Polaroid Effect"
  (http://rmagick.rubyforge.org/Polaroid/polaroid.html)

o Fixed a half-dozen bugs. Thanks to all the folks who reported them! Their
  names are recorded in the Change Log.

And that's not all. See the Change Log for details.

RMagick is available as always from RubyForge:
http://rubyforge.org/projects/rmagick/. The RMagick home page is
http://rmagick.rubyforge.org. The RMagick installation FAQ is at
http://rmagick.rubyforge.org/install-faq.html.

(This release is not yet available for MS Windows. Watch here for an
announcement.)

RMagick is an interface to the ImageMagick (www.imagemagick.org) and
GraphicsMagick (www.graphicsmagick.org) image processing libraries.
RMagick supports more than 90 image formats, including GIF, JPEG, and
PNG.  RMagick comes with comprehensive HTML documentation.
