[rabbitmq-discuss] Pika 0.9.7 Released

[Gavin M. Roy]

I've tagged and uploaded Pika 0.9.7 to pypi.

This is mainly a bugfix release but includes a new feature, adding blocking
consume method for receiving messages from RabbitMQ:

for method_frame, properties, body in channel.consume('test'):
print method_frame, properties, body

A full example of using the generator can be found at
https://pika.readthedocs.org/en/latest/examples/blocking_consumer_generator.html-
Please read this or the docs prior to using the method.

The documentation has been updated and can found at
https://pika.readthedocs.org
