[MonoDevelop] ANNOUNCE: Mono.Addins 0.2

[Lluis Sanchez]

Hi,

I'm pleased to announce the release of Mono.Addins 0.2.

Mono.Addins is a generic framework for creating extensible applications,
and for creating libraries which extend those applications.

The 0.2 release comes with many bug fixes and some improvements and new
features:

      * Assemblies registered in the GAC can now be referenced
        from .addins files
        (http://www.mono-project.com/Mono.Addins_Reference_Manual#Add-ins_in_the_GAC).
      * Add-ins now have a private data path which can be used by
        extensions to store arbitrary data files at run time
        (http://www.mono-project.com/Mono.Addins_Reference_Manual#The_private_data_directory).
      * Added support for add-ins which are disabled by default.
      * The core library no longer depends on Mono.Posix.
      * The assemblies are now signed.
      * Several improvements in the classes of the
        Mono.Addins.Description namespace.
      * Added support for getting resource strings and resource objects
        from extension nodes.
