• Removed deprecated space-based behavior names.
• Acquire and release the GIL properly, thanks ketralnis
• Add support for libmemcached 0.40
• Included a more useful command-line interface
• Fixed handling of NUL-byte keys in get_multi in binary protocol
• Fixed some valgrind-reported memory warnings
• Fixed bogus usage of time argument for delete.
• 1.1.1: Fixed tests under Python 2.5

• Lots of documentation fixes and other nice things like that.
• Nailed what appears to be the last outstanding memory leak.
• Explicitly require libmemcached 0.32 or newer.

• Added a get_stats method, which behaves exactly like python-memcached's equivalent.
• Gives the empty string for empty memcached values like python-memcached does.
• Added exceptions for most libmemcached return codes.
• Fixed an issue with Client.behaviors.update.

• Pooling helpers are now available. See pooling.rst in the distribution.
• The binary protocol is now properly exposed, simply pass binary=True to the constructor and there you go.
• Call signatures now match libmemcached 0.32, but should work with older versions. Remember to run the tests!

• Restructured some of the code, which should yield better performance (if not for that, it reads better.)
• Fixed some memory leaks.
• Integrated changes from amix.dk, which should make pylibmc work under Snow Leopard.
• Add support for the boolean datatype.
• Improved test-runner -- now tests build/lib.*/_pylibmc.so if available, and reports some version information.
• Support for x86_64 should now work completely.
• Builds with Python 2.4, tests run fine, but not officially supported.
• Fixed critical bugs in behavior manipulation.

• Added compatibility with libmemcached 0.26, WRT error return codes.
• Added flush_all and disconnect_all methods.
• Now using the latest pickling protocol.

• Fixed lots of memory leaks, and added support for libmemcached 0.23.
• Also made the code tighter in terms of compiler pedantics.

• Renamed the C module to _pylibmc, and added lots of libmemcached constants to it, as well as implemented behaviors.
