Release 0.5.1 fixes Docbook regressions (now docbook generation is ok for html and fo).
Improved performance (from 15% to 45% faster than xsltproc on docbook testcases).

Release 0.5.0 includes a load of internal API changes and an improved modular design.
Performance was also improved, with a faster parser and better XML serializers.
OASIS conformance was also improved : now only 47 tests fails of the 1662 tests for Xalan-part conformance tests (97% conformance).
New plugins have been introduced :
- xemfs-fuse, a FUSE-based library to browse Xemeiah's database as a filesystem mountpoint
- xem-valhalla, a library based on GeexBox libvalhalla and libplayer enabling Media scanning and playing within Xemeiah's Web Browser.
Starting from 0.5.0, debian package 'xemeiah-xsl' provides a standalone xsl-only packaging of Xemeiah, whereas 'xemeiah' only includes command-line bootstrapping tool.

Xemeiah release 0.4.14 now is able to process docbook-xsl, faster than xsltproc.

ChangeLog summary :
* More Oasis conformance tests
Correct parsing of DOCTYPE and ENTITY
Better way to parse UTF-8 entries using the ByteStreamReader class
More output bugs fixups, including DOCTYPE generation and late HTML requalify
First implementation of xsl:attribute-set (does not handle conflicts yet)

This release corrects small bugs in XSL output and re-packages Xemeiah extensions in a better way.
