Subject: Subject: [ANN] doodle 0.1.0 Released

doodle version 0.1.0 has been released!

* <http://doodle.rubyforge.org>

Doodle is a gem for simplifying the definition of Ruby classes by
making attributes and their properties more declarative. Doodle is
eco-friendly: it does not globally modify Object, Class or Module.

Changes:

## 0.1.0 / 2008-04-26
- doodle's first beta version - the API should remain stable from now on
- created a Google group: http://groups.google.com/group/ruby-doodle
- major change: changed Doodle from module to class so you now use
    class Foo < Doodle
  instead of
    class Foo < Doodle::Base
- Doodle::Helper renamed Doodle::Core
- added #parent method - returns outer object in initialization blocks
  (see spec/doodle_context_spec for example usage)
- fixed class and singleton attribute inheritance
- rake spec now passes all specs with ruby 1.8.6, ruby 1.9.0 and JRuby 1.1.1
- added more specs
- added lib/doodle/utils.rb (used by examples)
- removed (half-hearted) support for 1.8.5
- removed redundant methods & excised some cruft
- refactored project to use newgem

## 0.0.11 / 2008-04-13
- refactored attributes and conversions
