38 method in a plugin, as used by Catalyst::Plugin::Server (t0m)

44 - Change streaming test to serve itself rather than 01use.t, making
45 test sync for engines easier (t0m)

66 Sewn together by t0m from two patches provided by David E. Wheeler
67 - Switch an around 'new' in Catalyst::Controller to a BUILDARGS
68 method as it's much neater and more obvious what is going on (t0m)

70 attributes, and use if from ::Engine rather than deleting
71 the key from the instance hash (t0m)
72 - Use handles on tree attribute of Catalyst::Stats to replace
73 trivial delegation methods (t0m)
74 - Change the following direct hash accesses into attributes:

190 - Refactored component resolution (component(), models(), model(), et al). We now
191 throw warnings for two reasons:
192 1) model() or view() was called with no arguments, and two results are returned
193 -- set default_(model|view), current_(model|view) or current_(model|view)_instance
195 2) you call a component resolution method with a string, and it resorts to a regexp
196 fallback wherein a result is returned -- if you really want to search, call the
197 method with a regex as the argument

240 - Allow multiple restart directories and added option to follow
