Announcing python-musicbrainzngs, release 0.5

We’ve just release a new version of python-musicbrainzngs, a library for accessing the Musicbrainz webservice from python.
Version 0.5 comes with a lot of new features, including:

• Support for URL entities
• Support for Area entities
• Support the experimental JSON webservice
• Support fuzzy disc lookup by TOC
• add a -count element to browse and search requests
• added support for link type UUIDs
• deprecated puid and echoprint support

And a number of bug fixes and other small changes. See the CHANGES file  for more information.

For consistency with online repositories and distribution packages, we’ve renamed some URLs. You can now find the library on github and readthedocs at:

• https://github.com/alastair/python-musicbrainzngs
• http://python-musicbrainzngs.readthedocs.org

You will be automatically redirected if you access the old urls.

Thanks to Johannes Dewender, Ian McEwen, Wieland Hoffmann, Simon Chopin and Ryan Helinski for contributing to this release.
