Duplicity 0.5.20 and 0.6.05 Released

Written for Duplicity by Kenneth Loafman on 2009-08-28

With this release we mark the stabilization of the 0.6 series and make
0.5.20 the final release of the 0.5 series. After this, the 0.6 series
will be merged into the stable branch and a new 0.7 series will be
started. I'm not sure yet what 0.7 will be, so stay tuned.

For those of you wondering, 0.5.19 was never officially released with an
email or other notice, so I'm including its change log below. It's now
announced officially, just too late to do any good.

Fixed problem where Cygwin was returning -1 for the
hard max open file limit.

On process that complete before waitpid(), log them
and return zero as the process return status.

Make sure 'invalid packet (ctb=14)' from gpg is not
a fatal error.

Copy changes from trunk for duplicity translation.

Allow handling of unicode filenames in log messages.

Ignore unicode() translation errors in log messsages.
