[ANNOUNCE] dietHotplug 0.3 release

I've just released a new version of the dietHotplug package. It can be
found at:
        http://prdownloads.sourceforge.net/linux-hotplug/diethotplug-0.3.tar.gz
or:
        kernel.org/pub/linux/utils/kernel/hotplug/diethotplug-0.3.tar.gz
        kernel.org/pub/linux/utils/kernel/hotplug/diethotplug-0.3.tar.bz2

Changes since the last release:
        - added support for IEEE1394 hotplug devices. This hasn't been
          tested very well due to my lack of devices. Testing is
          welcome :)

        - moved the library files that hotplug needed from dietlibc into
          the release tree. This removes the external dependency on
          dietlibc. I have only tested the i386 arch build. People
          with different architectures are encouraged to test and send
          me patches for where I messed up the build process for their
          machines.

        - now tries to load _all_ modules that match the signature of
          the inserted device. Previously only the first found one
          would be loaded, which is a bad thing for some drivers (mostly
          pci drivers.) This fixes a number of reported problems from
          different users.

thanks,

greg k-h
