[ANN] ftputil 2.6 released

[Stefan Schwarzer]

ftputil 2.6 is now available from
http://ftputil.sschwarzer.net/download .

Changes since version 2.5
-------------------------

- The stat caching has been improved. There's now an "auto-grow"
  feature for `FTPHost.listdir` which in turn applies to
  `FTPHost.walk`. Moreover, there are several performance
  optimizations.

- A few bugs were fixed [1-3].

- ftputil now requires at least Python 2.4 (but doesn't work
  with Python 3).

What is ftputil?
----------------

ftputil is a high-level FTP client library for the Python programming
language. ftputil implements a virtual file system for accessing FTP
servers, that is, it can generate file-like objects for remote files.
The library supports many functions similar to those in the os,
os.path and shutil modules. ftputil has convenience functions for
conditional uploads and downloads, and handles FTP clients and servers
in different timezones.
