<h1>Release 0.6 ("Cannon Beach")</h1>

<p><b>2013-12-25</b></p>

<p>Happy Holidays! Sorry, it's been over 3 months since our <a href="0.5">last release</a>, but it's worth it. This release is awesome.</p>

<p>I'm giving this release the codename "<a href="https://www.google.com/search?q=cannon+beach&espv=210&es_sm=91&source=lnms&tbm=isch&sa=X">Cannon Beach</a>",
where I've done a bunch of hacking on Camlistore over the years, and in the past few months.</p>
