+
+5.7099_01 2008-06-25 22:36:00
+ - Refactored component resolution (component(), models(), model(), et al). We now
+ throw warnings for two reasons:
+ 1) model() or view() was called with no arguments, and two results are returned
+ -- set default_(model|view), current_(model|view) or current_(model|view)_instance
+ instead
+ 2) you call a component resolution method with a string, and it resorts to a regexp
+ fallback wherein a result is returned -- if you really want to search, call the
+ method with a regex as the argument
+ - remove 0-length query string components so warnings aren't thrown (RT #36428)
+ - Update HTTP::Body dep so that the uploadtmp config value will work (RT #22540)
+ - Fix for LocalRegex when used in the Root controller

+ an undef value (RT #34782)

+ - Allow multiple restart directories and added option to follow
+ symlinks in the HTTP::Restarter engine (Sebastian Willert)
+ - Fixed t/optional_http-server-restart.t so it actually tests
+ if the server restarted or notified of an error (Sebastian Willert)

+ (Emanuele Zeppieri)
+ - Fixed bug in HTTP engine where writes could fail with
