+0.99 ???
+
+ [NEW DOCUMENTATION]
+ * Added Moose::Manual::Support that defines the support, compatiblity, and
+ release policies for Moose.
+
+0.98 Wed, Feb 10, 2010
+
+ [BUG FIXES]
+
+ * An internals change in 0.97 broke role application to an instance in some
+ cases. The bug occurred when two different roles were applied to different
+ instances of the same class. (Rafael Kitover)
+
+
+0.97 Tue, Feb 9, 2010
+
+ [BUG FIXES]
+
+ * Calling ->reinitialize on a cached anonymous class destroyed the cache,
+ causing the class to go out of scope unexpectedly. This could easily
+ happen at a distance by applying a metarole to an anonymous class. (Dave
+ Rolsky).
+
+0.96 Sat, Feb 6, 2010
+
+ [NEW FEATURES]
+
+ * ScalarRef is now a parameterized type. You can now specify a type
+ constraint for whatever the reference points to. (Closes RT#50857)
+ (Michael G. Schwern, Florian Ragwitz)
+
+ [BUG FIXES]
+
+ * ScalarRef now accepts references to other references. (Closes RT#50934)
+ (Michael G. Schwern)
+
+0.95 Thu, Feb 4, 2010
+
+ [NEW FEATURES]
+
+ * Moose::Meta::Attribute::Native::Trait::Code now provides execute_method as
+ a delegation option. This allows the code reference to be called as a
+ method on the object. (Florian Ragwitz)
+
+ [ENHANCEMENTS]
+
+ * Moose::Object::does no longer checks the entire inheritance tree, since
+ Moose::Meta::Class::does_role already does this. (doy)
+
+ * Moose::Util::add_method_modifier (and subsequently the sugar functions
+ Moose::before, Moose::after, and Moose::around) can now accept arrayrefs,
+ with the same behavior as lists. Types other than arrayref and regexp
+ result in an error. (Dylan Hardison)
+
+0.94 Mon, Jan 18, 2010
+
+ [API CHANGES]
+
+ * Please see the changes listed for 0.93_01 and Moose::Manual::Delta.
+
+ [ENHANCEMENTS]
+
+ * Improved support for anonymous roles by changing various APIs to take
+ Moose::Meta::Role objects as well as role names. This included
+
+ - Moose::Meta::Class->does_role
+ - Moose::Meta::Role->does_role
+ - Moose::Util::does_role
+ - Moose::Util::apply_all_roles
+ - Moose::Util::ensure_all_roles
+ - Moose::Util::search_class_by_role
+
+ Requested by Shawn Moore. Addresses RT #51143 (and then some). (Dave Rolsky)
+
+ [BUG FIXES]
+
+ * Fix handling of non-alphanumeric attributes names like '@foo'. This should
+ work as long as the accessor method names are explicitly set to valid Perl
+ method names. Reported by Doug Treder. RT #53731. (Dave Rolsky)
+
+
+0.93_03 Tue, Jan 5, 2010
+
+ [BUG FIXES]
+
+ * Portability fixes to our XS code so we compile with 5.8.8 and Visual
+ C++. Fixes RT #53391. Reported by Taro Nishino. (rafl)
+
+
+0.93_02 Tue, Jan 5, 2010
+
+ [BUG FIXES]
+
+ * Depend on Class::MOP 0.97_01 so we can get useful results from CPAN
+ testers. (Dave Rolsky)
+
+
+0.93_01 Mon, Jan 4, 2010
+
+ [API CHANGES]
+
+ See Moose::Manual::Delta for more details on backwards compatiblity issues.
+
+ * Role attributes are now objects of the Moose::Meta::Role::Attribute
+ class. (Dave Rolsky).
+
+ * There were major changes to how metaroles are applied. We now distinguish
+ between metaroles for classes vs those for roles. See the
+ Moose::Util::MetaRole docs for details. (Dave Rolsky)
+
+ * The old MetaRole API has been deprecated, but will continue to
+ work. However, if you are applying an attribute metaclass role, this may
+ break because of the fact that roles now have an attribute metaclass
+ too. (Dave Rolsky)
+
+ * Moose::Util::MetaRole::apply_metaclass_roles is now called
+ apply_metaroles. The old name is deprecated. Dave Rolsky>
+
+ * The unimport subs created by Moose::Exporter now clean up re-exported
+ functions like blessed and confess, unless the caller imported them from
+ somewhere else too. See Moose::Manua::Delta for backcompat details. (rafl)
+
+ [ENHANCEMENTS AND BUG FIXES]
+
+ * Changed the Str constraint to accept magic lvalue strings like one gets from
+ substr et al, again. (sorear)
+
+ * Sped up the type constraint parsing regex. (Sam Vilain)
+
+ * The Moose::Cookbook::Extending::Recipe2 recipe was broken. Fix suggested by
+ jrey.
+
+ * Added Moose::Util::TypeConstraints exports when using oose.pm to allow
+ easier testing of TypeConstraints from the command line. (perigrin)
+
+ * Added a with_immutable test function to Test::Moose, to run a block of tests
+ with and without certain classes being immutable. (doy)
+
+ * We now use Module::Install extensions explicitly to avoid confusing errors
+ if they're not installed. We use Module::Install::AuthorRequires to stop
+ test extraction and general failures if you don't have the author side
+ dependencies installed.
+
+ * Fixed a grammar error in Moose::Cookbook::Basics::Recipe4. rt.cpan.org
+ #51791. (Amir E. Aharoni)
+
+
+0.93 Thu, Nov 19, 2009
+ * Moose::Object
+ - Calling $object->new() is no longer deprecated, and no longer
+ warns. (doy)
+
+ * Moose::Meta::Role
+ - The get_attribute_map method is now deprecated. (Dave Rolsky)
+
+ * Moose::Meta::Method::Delegation
+ - Preserve variable aliasing in @_ for delegated methods, so that
+ altering @_ affects the passed value. (doy)
+
+ * Moose::Util::TypeConstraints
+ - Allow array refs for non-anonymous form of enum and duck_type, not
+ just anonymous. The non-arrayref forms may be removed in the
+ future. (doy)
+ - Changed Str constraint to not accept globs (*STDIN or *FOO). (chansen)
+ - Properly document Int being a subtype of Str. (doy)
+
+ * Moose::Exporter
+ - Moose::Exporter using modules can now export their functions to the
+ main package. This applied to Moose and Moose::Role, among
+ others. (nothingmuch)
+
+ * Moose::Meta::Attribute
+ - Don't remove attribute accessors we never installed, during
+ remove_accessors. (doy)
+
+ * Moose::Meta::Attribute::Native::Trait::Array
+ - Don't bypass prototype checking when calling List::Util::first, to
+ avoid a segfault when it is called with a non-code argument. (doy)
+
+ * Moose::Meta::Attribute::Native::Trait::Code
+ - Fix passing arguments to code execute helpers. (doy)
+
+0.92 Tue, Sep 22, 2009
+ * Moose::Util::TypeConstraints
+ - added the match_on_type operator (Stevan)
+ - added tests and docs for this (Stevan)
+
+ * Moose::Meta::Class
+ - Metaclass compat fixing should already happen recursively, there's no
+ need to explicitly walk up the inheritance tree. (doy)
+
+ * Moose::Meta::Attribute
+ - Add tests for set_raw_value and get_raw_value. (nothingmuch)
+
+0.91 Thu, Sep 17, 2009
+ * Moose::Object
+ - Don't import any functions, in order to avoid polluting our namespace
+ with things that can look like methods (blessed, try, etc)
+ (nothingmuch)
+
+ * Moose::Meta::Method::Constructor
+ - The generated code needs to called Scalar::Util::blessed by its
+ fully-qualified name or else Perl can interpret the call to blessed as
+ an indirect method call. This broke Search::GIN, which in turn broke
+ KiokuDB. (nothingmuch)
+
+0.90 Tue, Sep 15, 2009
* Moose::Meta::Attribute::Native::Trait::Counter
* Moose::Meta::Attribute::Native::Trait::String
- For these two traits, an attribute which did not explicitly provide
- Added more hooks to customize how roles are applied. The role
summation class, used to create composite roles, can now be changed
and/or have meta-roles applied to it. (rafl)
+ - The get_method_list method no longer explicitly excludes the "meta"
+ method. This was a hack that has been replaced by better hacks. (Dave
+ Rolsky)
* Moose::Meta::Method::Delegation
- fixed delegated methods to make sure that any modifiers attached to
the accessor being delegated on will be called (Stevan)
- added tests for this (Stevan)
+ * Moose::Meta::Class
+ - Moose no longer warns when a class that is being made immutable has
+ mutable ancestors. While in theory this is a good thing to warn about,
+ we found so many exceptions to this that doing this properly became
+ quite problematic.
+
0.89_02 Thu, Sep 10, 2009
* Moose::Meta::Attribute::Native
- Fix Hash, which still had 'empty' instead of 'is_empty'. (hdp)
- If you try to wrap/export a subroutine which doesn't actually exist,
Moose::Exporter will warn you about this. (doy)
- * Moose::Meta::Class
- - Warn when calling make_immutable on a class with mutable ancestors.
- (doy)
-
* Moose::Meta::Role::Application::ToRole
- When a role aliased a method from another role, it was only getting
the new (aliased) name, not the original name. This differed from what
with_meta, throw a warning and skip the exporting, rather than
installing a broken sub. (doy)
+ * Moose::Meta::Class
+ - Moose now warns if you call C<make_immutable> for a class with mutable
+ ancestors. (doy)
+
0.89 Thu Aug 13, 2009
* Moose::Manual::Attributes
- Clarify "is", include discussion of "bare". (Sartak)
