I've just released version 0.2.1 of distlib on PyPI [1]. For newcomers,
distlib is a library of packaging functionality which is intended to be
usable as the basis for third-party packaging tools.

The main changes in this release are as follows:

=C2=A0=C2=A0=C2=A0 Fixed issue #58: Return a Distribution instance or None =
from locate().

=C2=A0=C2=A0=C2=A0 Fixed issue #59: Skipped special keys when looking for v=
ersions.

=C2=A0=C2=A0=C2=A0 Improved behaviour of PyPIJSONLocator to be analogous to=
 that of other
=C2=A0=C2=A0=C2=A0 locators.

=C2=A0=C2=A0=C2=A0 Added resource iterator functionality.

=C2=A0=C2=A0=C2=A0 Fixed issue #71: Updated launchers to decode shebangs us=
ing UTF-8.
=C2=A0=C2=A0=C2=A0 This allows non-ASCII pathnames to be correctly handled.

=C2=A0=C2=A0=C2=A0 Ensured that the executable written to shebangs is normc=
ased.

=C2=A0=C2=A0=C2=A0 Changed ScriptMaker to work better under Jython.

=C2=A0=C2=A0=C2=A0 Changed the mode setting method to work better under Jyt=
hon.

=C2=A0=C2=A0=C2=A0 Changed get_executable() to return a normcased value.

=C2=A0=C2=A0=C2=A0 Handled multiple-architecture wheel filenames correctly.


A more detailed change log is available at [2].

Please try it out, and if you find any problems or have any suggestions for
improvements, please give some feedback using the issue tracker! [3]
