The real ChangeLog is the git log. This is just a summary of the
user-visible changes between releases.

New in 0.8.0:
=============

Added this NEWS file :)

Added a new tool: sbodl, which downloads sources and checks md5sums.

sbolint:
- Suggestions only (not an error/warning) to split python builds into
  separate python2- and python3- builds, and to use the python2 command
  rather than plain python (because someday, /usr/bin/python will become
  a symlink to python3, not python2).
- Add a bit of color in the output (red errors, green OK, etc).
- Check TMP= PKG= OUTPUT= assignments.
- Check for outdated (i386, i486) ARCH and flags.
- Check for hidden and empty files/directories.
- Fix off-by-one error in slack-desc line length check.
- Add check for trailing whitespace on slack-desc non-blank lines.

sbopkglint:
- Add tests for /usr/info.
- /etc/ld.so.conf.d is not allowed.
- *-mimetypes.list is now allowed in /usr/share/applications.
- Broken python modules (named UNKNOWN-*) are now detected.

Thanks to bedlam, fourtysixandtwo, Fonix, lockywolf, timsoft, and
probably others for the ideas that led to the new features in 0.8.0.
