+- update to 0.6:
+* Rewrote exception handling in connection pool. Exception handling is now a lot
+  cleaner and does not introduce cyclic references anymore. (`issue #25
+  <https://github.com/wbolster/happybase/issues/25>`_).
+* Regenerated bundled Thrift code using Thrift 0.9.0 with the new-style classes
+  flag (`issue #27 <https://github.com/wbolster/happybase/issues/27>`_).

+* The debug log message emitted by :py:meth:`Table.scan` when closing a scanner
+* Increased Thrift dependency to at least 0.8.
+* The :py:class:`Connection` constructor now features an optional `timeout`
+  parameter
+* The `timestamp` argument to various methods now also accepts `long` values
