[myhdl-list] 0.5b1 beta release

[Jan D. <ja...@ja...>]

Hi:

I have released beta release 0.5b1 (see development snapshots).

I have adapted the manual. I had hoped to have a release
candidate by now, but I found and fixed several issues while
updating the manual, so I do a beta release first. Thanks
for installing and trying the code if you have time.

The snapshot now contains the manual (html and pdf), but
no longer the whatsnew docs. As whatsnew0.5 now lives
on the wiki, I thought it would be confusing to include
old whatsnew docs in a release. I plan to do the same
for the final release.

I decided to simplify the first chapter and leave at that
for a "tutorial" document. Many changes were made to the
manual, and I still have to proofread it again. You can do so
also from the snapshot, or on-line (see link in the
development zone). All comments welcome.

Jan
