Hi all,

i just released devpi-server-0.9, devpi-client-0.9 and
a convenience meta "devpi-0.9" package to install them both.

Main news for devpi-server, the caching pypi server:

- github-style user and index management: you can upload
  to USER/NAME indexes with the default being "root/dev",
  an overlay index that serves all pypi.python.org
  packages and the ones you upload to it.
  
- integrates now well with latest CDN changes, maintains
  a consistent quite real-time local pypi cache 

- redis dependency is gone, only pure Python deps left

Main news for the initial release of devpi-client, 
the packaging workflow tool:

- provides install/upload/test sub commands to 
  perform common tasks with an index

- provides user/index/use/server commands to manage context
  and the automated server 

Lastly, to get started super-quickly, there is a new site
with all the docs:

    http://doc.devpi.net

I'd like to use the 0.9 series to refine the command line
interface, fix bugs and implement some more functionality
before heading for a more stable 1.0 release.

have fun,
holger krekel
