Subject: [ANN] ruby-xattr 0.3.0

I've just released the third version of the ruby-xattr library. Some
major improvements in this release, largely thanks to Peter Rullmann,
who sent a huge patch that added a lot of the new calls.

What's ruby-xattr?  It's an extension for accessing the SGI
XFS-compatible extended attribute API on the filesystem. An example:

	puts File.get_attr("test.rb", 'description')  # => "The test suite"

I'm actively soliciting some suggestions for the API in this release, so
that it feels as natural as possible. Suggestions are very welcome, and
I'd like to get this a little more locked down in the next couple
releases.

Where to get it:

Have a blast!

With best wishes,
