* Introduces RKRequestCache for cacheing responses (supports ETag conditional GET, use cache if available, use cache on error, etc.) closes#75
* Updates to Three20 layer to eliminate need for intermediary TTTableItem classes closes#76
* Fixes to ensure iOS 3.x compatability:
* Switched compiler to Clang
* Updated conditional checks for UIBackgroundTask symbols to ensure runtime safety on iOS 3.x
* Removed unnecessary linkage against UIKit and CoreFoundation from library targets
* Fix for issue where RKRequest objects could become stuck in infinite loop within RKRequestQueue loadNextInQueue if you start
a request and then cancel immediately. On cancel only decrement loadCount if the request has start loading. refs #122
* Removed RestKit from inheritance hierarchy
* Mappings are implemented as concrete classes
* Mapper is much more flexible & powerful
* Much more robust error handling
* Serialization is reimplemented as an object mapping operation
* Added ability to serialize to JSON natively
* Reworked Core Data integration
* Simplified the codebase substantially
* Cleaned up remaining warnings about if (self = [super init])
* RKParamsExample - Highlights multi-part uploads
* RKRequestQueueExample - Working with the request queue
* RKBackgroundRequestExample - Examples of using the background policies for backgrounding requests
* RKReachabilityExample - Shows how to work with the reachability observer
* RKRelationshipMappingExample - Shows how to map related objects from JSON into an object graph
* RKCoreDataExample - Shows the basics of using RestKit's Core Data examples
Also rearranged dispatch of RKRequest delegate method for didStartLoad: to ensure requeue callbacks get invoked in a timely manner. refs #62
* Cleaned up various mismatches in method signatures that were preventing documentation generation
* Removed naked ampersands from comments as they cause XML parser failures during docset generation via appledoc
* Factored out display of alerts into RKAlert interface that hides the differences between UIKit and OS X Cocoa.
* Added macosx to supported platforms to enable build on OS X.
* Configured project to use conditional architectures to enable building on OS X and iOS from the same targets.
* Implemented a bare-bones OS X example app.
* Create `rake build` task for building RestKit against iOS and OS X SDK for quick testing.
* Introduce RKObjectMappable#relationshipsToSerialize to define nested relationships to post
* New helper methods for working with relationship serializations.
* Extended Rails router to serialize nested objects according to Rails idioms
Introduces four modes for handling background requests:
* RKRequestBackgroundPolicyNone - The default behavior replicating pre-background behavior. No special action is taken with regards to backgrounding.
* RKRequestBackgroundPolicyCancel - On transition to the background, requests with this policy set will be cancelled automatically and the delegate informed.
* RKRequestBackgroundPolicyContinue - Requests with this policy will be continued in the background after the app has been transitioned.
* RKRequestBackgroundPolicyRequeue - Requests with this policy will be cancelled and then immediately placed onto the queue for processing the next time the app is returned to the foreground.
