2015-03-20 io.js v1.6.1 Release

Notable Changes:

* path: New type-checking on path.resolve()
  <https://github.com/iojs/io.js/pull/1153> uncovered some edge-cases
  being relied upon in the wild, most notably path.dirname(undefined).
  Type-checking has been loosened for path.dirname(), path.basename(),
  and path.extname(), (Colin Ihrig)
  <https://github.com/iojs/io.js/pull/1216>.
* querystring: Internal optimizations in querystring.parse() and
  querystring.stringify() <https://github.com/iojs/io.js/pull/847>
  prevented Number literals from being properly converted via
  querystring.escape() <https://github.com/iojs/io.js/pull/1208>,
  exposing a blind-spot in the test suite. The bug and the tests have
  now been fixed (Jeremiah Senkpiel)
  <https://github.com/iojs/io.js/pull/1213>.

 # io.js ChangeLog
 
+## 2015-03-20, Version 1.6.1, @rvagg
+
+### Notable changes
+
+* **path**: New type-checking on `path.resolve()` [#1153](https://github.com/iojs/io.js/pull/1153) uncovered some edge-cases being relied upon in the wild, most notably `path.dirname(undefined)`. Type-checking has been loosened for `path.dirname()`, `path.basename()`, and `path.extname()` (Colin Ihrig) [#1216](https://github.com/iojs/io.js/pull/1216).
+* **querystring**: Internal optimizations in `querystring.parse()` and `querystring.stringify()` [#847](https://github.com/iojs/io.js/pull/847) prevented `Number` literals from being properly converted via `querystring.escape()` [#1208](https://github.com/iojs/io.js/issues/1208), exposing a blind-spot in the test suite. The bug and the tests have now been fixed (Jeremiah Senkpiel) [#1213](https://github.com/iojs/io.js/pull/1213).
