Pythonect 0.6.0 released

Hi all,

I'm pleased to announce the 0.6.0 release of Pythonect: http://www.pythonect.org

Pythonect is a new, experimental, general-purpose dataflow programming language based on Python. It provides both a visual programming language and a text-based scripting language. The text-based scripting language aims to combine the quick and intuitive feel of shell scripting, with the power of Python. The visual programming language is based on the idea of a diagram with “boxes and arrows”.

Pythonect interpreter (and reference implementation) is a free and open source software written completely in Python. It is available under the the BSD 3-Clause License.

Highlights for this release include:

* Support for parsing and running Microsoft Visio 2007 and 2010 VDX's (Visio XML Diagrams)

* Support for parsing and running Dia (both compressed, and not compressed diagrams)

* Any Python function can be a reduce()-like using the `_!` identifier (e.g. [1,2,3] -> sum(_!) -> print will print 6)
