- Due to some mix up up the I got the bugfix for the 'timeout' parameter
to ThreadPool.putRequest exactly the wrong way round (or I "fixed" it
twice). It now defaults to None as its should, so putRequest blocks by
default, if the requests queue is full. Thanks for Guillaume Taglang for
reporting the issue.
- Rename NEWS.txt to CHANGELOG.txt (this file).
- Add SVN checkout instructions to README.

- Update reference to "Python In A Nutshell" to second edition (suggested
by Alex Martelli).
- Fixed typo in WorkerThread.run() (thanks to Nicholas Bollweg, Aaron
Levinson, Rogério Schneider, Grégory Starck for reporting).
- Fixed missing first argument in call to Queue.get() in WorkerThread.run()
(thanks to Aaron Levinson for report).
- added new argument 'do_join' to ThreadPool.dismissWorkers(). When True,
the method will perform Thread.join() on each thread after dismissing it.
- Added joinAllDismissedWorkers method to ThreadPool to join dismissed
threads at a later time (thanks to Aaron Levinson for patch for these two
changes).

- 'timeout' parameter of ThreadPool.putRequest now correctly defaults to 0
instead of None (thanks to Mads Sülau Jørgensen for bug report).
- Added default exception handler callback (thanks to Moshe Cohen for the
patch).
- Fixed locking issue that prevented worker threads from being dismissed
when no work requests are in the requests queue (thanks to Guillaume
Pratte for the bug report).
- Add option for results queue size to ThreadPool (thanks to Krzysztof
Jakubczyk for the idea).
- Changed name of reuquestQueue and resultsQueue attributes in WorkerThread
and ThreadPool to _requests_queue and _results_queue to be more consistent
and compliant with PEP 8 and properly indicate private nature.
- Moved repository to Subversion.
