* A new plugin, "lastid", adds Last.fm acoustic fingerprinting support
to the autotagger. Similar to the PUIDs used by MusicBrainz Picard,
this system allows beets to recognize files that don't have any

* New event system for plugins (thanks, Jeff!). Plugins can now get
callbacks from beets when certain events occur in the core.
* The BPD plugin is now disabled by default. This greatly simplifies
installation of the beets core, which has no compiled dependencies
now. To use BPD, though, you'll need to set "plugins: bpd" in your

* The "import" command can now remove original files when it copies
items into your library. (This might be useful if you're low on disk
space.) Set the "import_delete" option in your .beetsconfig to "yes".
* Importing without autotagging ("beet import -A") now prints out album
names as it imports them to indicate progress.
* There's a new "mpdupdate" plugin that will automatically update your
MPD index whenever your beets library changes. Documentation on this
is forthcoming as well.
