v0.1.0 is released, with substantial improvements. This is more 
like a usable tool and less like a proof of concept now, although 
I would definitely say it is still alpha quality due to lack of 
testing.

Highlights:

Ditched distutils in favour of dub. This is easier for me to 
maintain and fits much better with the rest of the D ecosystem

As a result of the above, the %%pyd magic interface has changed, 
see the README.md or %%pyd? for info on the new system

Extended the @pdef!() UDA mechanism to work for not only 
functions, but pretty much everything else that pyd supports. You 
can now use it to automatically expose types, members, properties 
and more.

Many bugs fixed.
