  notification.
- Symbolize option keys passed to Pony [mperham/sidekiq#603]
- Batch no longer requires the Web UI since Web UI usage is optional.
  You must require is manually in your Web process:

```ruby
require 'sidekiq/web'
require 'sidekiq/batch/web'
mount Sidekiq::Web => '/sidekiq'
```


0.7.1
-----------

- Worker instances can access the associated jid and bid via simple
  accessors.
- Batches can now be modified while being processed so, e.g. a batch
  job can add additional jobs to its own batch.

```ruby
def perform(...)
  batch = Sidekiq::Batch.new(bid) # instantiate batch associated with this job
  batch.jobs do
    SomeWorker.perform_async # add another job
  end
end
```

- Save error backtraces in batch's failure info for display in Web UI.
- Clean up email notification a bit.


0.7.0
-----------

- Add optional batch description
- Mutable batches.  Batches can now be modified to add additional jobs
  at runtime.  Example would be a batch job which needs to create more
  jobs based on the data it is processing.

```ruby
batch = Sidekiq::Batch.new(bid)
batch.jobs do
  # define more jobs here
end
```
