Thanks to Viktor Dukhovni and Colin Woodbury for their contributions to this release.

Added

• Modules have been renamed to match the precedent set by the main streaming library. Aliases to the old names have been provided, but will be removed in the next major release.
  • Data.ByteString.Streaming -> Streaming.ByteString
  • Data.ByteString.Streaming.Char8 -> Streaming.ByteString.Char8
• An order-of-magnitude performance improvement in line splitting. #18
• Performance and correctness improvements for the readInt function. #31
• Documentation improved, and docstring coverage is now 100%. #27

Fixed

• An incorrect comment about Handles being automatically closed upon EOF with hGetContents and hGetContentsN. #9
• A crash in group and groupBy when reading too many bytes. #22
• groupBy incorrectly ordering its output elements. #4
