So far with testing internally at Slide.com, v2.2.0rc1 looks pretty
good, but I added a change to DummyTransaction (a faux-WebWare class
that's used in the generation of the actual output from Cheetah) to help
highlight issues when a UnicodeDecodeError is raised [1]

You can grab rc2 here:
	http://github.com/rtyler/cheetah/tarball/v2.2.0rc2
	http://github.com/rtyler/cheetah/zipball/v2.2.0rc2

The actual changes (as far as commits go) between rc1 and rc2 are as
follows (this list generated with: `git log v2.2.0rc1...v2.2.0rc2 --pretty=format:"  * %s (%h)"`

  * Update CHANGES with resolution of #19 (11301f3)
  * Make the error message coming out of DummyTransaction more clear. (6812d2d)
  * A little bit more of a DummyTransaction refactoring (18043e8)
  * Import silliness go bye-bye (1939607)
  * Import all the other bits of Version.py (71c50d4)
  * Make the tempfiles generated do not contain hyphens which breaks the test (089d26a)
  * Add a couple more tests to try to reproduce an error here at Slide (9eeb8c0)
  * Tidy up DummyTransaction as it was getting on my nerves a bit (b42efa0)

Just as before, you can report any issues you have with rc2 to the list,
or (preferably) to Mantis:
	http://bugs.communitycheetah.org/bug_report_page.php

Cheers :)
