Final 0.1.0 release is here:

http://people.debian.org/~rleigh/schroot/

This includes Debian packaging and full documentation (user docs
and API reference).

Any comments on this?

Also, do you have any comments on whether you would like this in
sbuild CVS, or as a standalone package?  I currently have this
in Arch, but it's easy to drop into CVS should you want it.  It's
entirely your choice--I'm happy either way.
