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

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

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

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

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

241 - Allow multiple restart directories and added option to follow
