0.7.0 being released tonight

I am releasing 0.7.0 tonight.  This has a rewrite of audio buffering in 
the sip driver, and various other fixups.  For those wondering about the 
status of the sip driver, this is the version that will be used for all 
the live demos next week...

The most interesting feature is the process seperated libexec.  What 
this allows for is embedding of interpreters, and the new libexec does 
this for perl.  The net result is similar to "mon_perl" for apache; the 
interpreter is loaded and initialized before perl apps are executed.

There is a new shell script tool, "ttstool", which can be used to 
conveniently generate tts promps with various backends under a 
consistent set of arguments.

The btsexec has been expanded so that it can also be used for shell 
scripts ran from libexec, and then parse out a bunch of properties into 
environment variables.

A lot of work was also done with internal pathname parsing.  Some of 
these changes were done to create commands which can generate a fully 
qualified filename.  This was meant for macros which will wrap libexec 
calls so that the server can do the basic work and pass fully qualified 
paths based on arguments rather than having to require the libexec 
program (or worst yet, shell script) from doing complex pathname 
conversions to match Bayonne's.  This will be especially useful for 
macros that will be introduced in the Bayonne Application Library.

The Bayonne Application Library will include macros that drive tts 
engines and other utilities (such as sending voice data in email or vpim 
wrapped).  Macros for specific applications will also be introduced in 
the future.  For example, there will be a sql-ledger macro set which 
will include functions like order/customer number lookup/verification.
