Hello,

I'm happy to announce LuaRocks 2.0.2, a bugfix release.

What's new:
* use LuaSocket if available for downloading files
* use LuaZip if available for unzipping files
* MinGW support in builtin build backend
* updated installation files for Windows, including a
Lua-For-Windows-compatible package

Unix tarball:

Windows stand-alone zip including Lua:
http://luarocks.org/releases/luarocks-2.0.2-win32.zip

Windows zip designed to be installed on top (and to be compatible
with) Lua For Windows:
http://luarocks.org/releases/luarocks-2.0.2-lfw.zip

Credit where credit is due: the vast majority of the work that went
into this release was done was Fabio Mascarenhas, who took the effort
to bring Windows support up to speed and work on improving the
compatibility with Lua For Windows. Kudos!

As usual, feedback is appreciated, and everyone is welcome in the
luarocks-developers list.

Cheers,
-- Hisham
