Hi everyone,
 We've worked on this for quite some while and it actually came out
looking pretty good. I'm pretty sure we touched the vast majority of the
code in yum since 2.6 and cleaned up a lot of places where things were
just unattractive. 

The functionality is still basically the same. Processing has been sped
up a good bit and we've enhanced some things, though a good portion of
this release was devoted to making it easier to write other programs
around yum and I think we've accomplished that.

I'd like to thank all the nice folks who worked on this. There are a lot
of people who have sent in a patch here and there and others who are
long time contributors. Specific nice people who are featured
prominently in the changelog for this release include:

James Bowes 
Tambet Ingo 
Jeremy Katz 
Tim Lauridisen 
Luke(Lewk?) Macken
Panu Matilainen 
Paul Nasrat
Jack Neeley
Menno Smits

So, without any further discussion I give you yum 3.0.
