Just in time before lots of people start releasing into Indigo, I am happy
to announce bloom 0.5.0!

Here are some of the highest level changes to bloom:

- OAUTH is now used to open pull requests with github.com, hopefully
cutting down on the number of times you have to enter your password.
- Some additional checks have been added to prevent invalid pull requests
from being opened.
- bloom also asks you to add doc and source information for your repository
in addition to setting a maintenance status.
- Fedora rpm generation (they are not generated by default yet). Thanks to
Scott K Logan and others for getting this into bloom.

There are a few more changes, but you can read the whole changelog here:

If you run into any bugs, please open issues on the issue tracker here:

Thanks!
