SCM functionality has been rewritten as implementations of a standard interface class. This will allow more seamless support of other SCM systems (e.g. Subversion). Dependencies on the "Meta" package, perhaps the worst thing ever to happen to CPAN, have been worked around, and this release allows for local mode operation on non-CPAN Perl archives on the filesystem. Spec files are now passed through RPM's own parser for improved macro expansion. Several new specgen templates were added, and many minor bugs fixed along the way.
