* Add support for MySQL binary types (also became default on newly-created databases).
* Add --rescan option.
* Add abe_loader tool to watch for and load new blocks.
* Add support for loading blocks using Bitcoin RPC
* Import unconfirmed transactions via RPC to bitcoind.
* Try to reconnect on stale db connection at transaction boundary.

* Support 32-byte pubkeys.
* Fix int-type detection for SQLite.
* Add Abe.admin CLI.
* Merge bitcointools upstream changes.
* Add --no-load option (webserver-only/skip load after --upgrade).
* Bug fix: KeyError: 'unlinked_count' in import_block.
* Fix string index out of range doing catch_up.
* Fix performance issue displaying large pages (page content returned as string, causing WSGIref to iterate over it).
* Support limited functionality without a database.
* Add Abe.abe --query option (cli for /q/COMMAND).

* Use ORDER BY instead of MAX() to get last block (Much faster at least on MySQL/TukuDB).
* Disable resolving of http client IP addresses which could slow down or hang Abe when client (proxy) is remote.
* Fix binary-type and int-type parameters being ignored in favor of auto-detection
* Fix issue where Crypto.Hash.RIPEMD was never being used (was using hashlib's workaround only)
