[PD-announce] PuREST JSON 0.15.0 released

[Thomas Mayer]

Hello,

I am happy to announce version 0.15.0 of PuREST JSON, code name: The API
they are a-changing.

PuREST JSON is a library for working with RESTful HTTP webservices, and
JSON data.

Authentication and authorization for webservices are available with
basic HTTP auth, cookie authentication, and OAuth. As an example for
OAuth authenticated webservices, a Twitter client is included.

Changes in the new version:
- Cancellation is now faster
- Switch to json-c 0.11
- Refactoring of code
- Breaking changes:
  -- [oauth] and [rest]:
     * [write( method is now called [file(
     * [url( method is now called [init(
     * init errors only output to console
     * changes to status outlet:
       ** on success output bang
       ** on HTTP error output numerical HTTP status
       ** on cURL error output list: error code and message
  -- [rest-json] has been removed
  -- [json-decode]:
     * string values will not be checked for numbers or boolean

If your build tool or platform does not have json-c 0.11 available, use
the branch json-c-0.10 for compilation.
