Release Name: 2.1.0

Notes:
This package makes sourcing information from (parsing) configuration files
robust and easy!  It:
* Allows programmers to specify the type of data that should be loaded
  from a configuration file.  The toolkit automatically will validate
  the file's data against this specification when loading the file, ensuring
  that the specification always is obeyed and saving the programmer the
  tedious chore of writing validation code.
* Automagically generates parameter accessor methods (getters, setters, and
  predicates to test for presence), an equality operator, and a +to_s+ method
  from the configuration's specification.
* Allows programmers to create configuration files,
  easily and programatically.
* Provides a class that can load (parse) Ruby configuration files (allowing the
  full power of Ruby to be used within configuration files).
* Provides classes that can load from (parse) and dump to YAML and key-value
  configuration files.
* Provides classes that can load from and dump to Hashes.
* Is very extensible, allowing the engine to be used with custom format
  configuration files and with custom data validation rules.


Changes: === 2.1.0 / 2008-07-25 * Small documentation enhancements * Add a patch for properly documenting configuration parameters for rdoc version 2.1.0, in addition to the existing patch for rdoc version 2.0.0
