The 3.0.1 relase came out _before_ the include feature was added. Please use
a nightly snapshot for the most recent version, or alternatively I've
created a developer's snapshot when I released the new experimental binary
packages. That has a version number 3.0.1+binpkg4, this is much newer than
3.0.1, although still somewhat older than a nightly snapshot would be and
already contains the include feature.

The only thing holding back a real 3.0.2 release, is that I have not really
received feedback on the binary packages so far. And without some field
testing I'd reluctant to call it a release. So if you have 30 minutes,
please download the installer for one platform and tell me if it works for
you. This means an immense contribution towards a 3.0.2 release.

You can download the binary packages from:

/upgrades

Thanks in advance.
