+ - added Class::MOP::Method (and its subclasses)
+ to the bootstrap
+ - adjusted tests for this
+ - added the Class::MOP::Instance attributes
+ to the bootstrap
+ - bootstrap no longer re-compiles accessors
+ so as to keep the MOP compile-time fast
+
+ * Class::MOP::Method
+ *** API CHANGE ***
+ - methods are no longer blessed CODE refs
+ but are actual objects which can be CODE-ified
+ - adjusted tests to compensate
+ - adjusted docs for this
+
+ * Class::MOP::Class
+ - changed how methods are dealt with to
+ encapsulate most of the work into the
+ &get_method_map method
+ - made several adjustments for the change
+ in Class::MOP::Method
+ - &add_attribute now checks if you are adding
+ a duplicate name, and properly removes the
+ old one before installing the new one
+ - added tests for this
+ - adjusted docs for this
+
+ * Class::MOP::Class::Immutable
+ - added caching of &get_method_map
+ - fixed issue with &get_package_symbol
+ - cleaned up the methods that die (patch by David Wheeler)

+ &list_all_package_symbols
+

+ * Class::MOP::Class
+ - added the %:methods attribute, which like
+ the $:version and such just actually goes
+ to the symbol table to get it's stuff.
+ However, it makes the MOP more complete.
+ ** API CHANGE **
+ - The &create method now requires that all
+ but the package name now is passed in as
+ named parameters. See docs for more info.
+ - updated docs and tests for this
+
+ * Class::MOP::Object
+ - added &dump method to easily Data::Dumper
+ an object
+
+ * Class::MOP
+ - cleaned up the initialization of attributes
+ which do not store things in the instance
+ - added the %:methods attribute definition to
+ the bootstrap
+
+ ~ lots of misc. test cleanup
+

+ * Class::MOP::Class
+ - moved the metaclass cache out of here
+ and it is now in Class::MOP itself.
+
+ * Class::MOP
+ - moved all the metaclass cache stuff here
+ - fixed all tests for this
+
+ * Class::MOP::Attribute
+ - reference values (other than CODE refs)
+ are no longer allowed for defaults
+ - added tests for this
+
+ * Class::MOP::Package
+ - fixed an issue with perl 5.8.1 and how it deals

+ always reloaded from the symbol table.
+
+ ~ lots of misc. documentation cleanup
+
+0.32 Sat. Aug. 12, 2006
+ added Class::MOP::Object so that the
metamodel is more complete (and closer
to what Perl 6 will probably be).
- added many tests for this
- this class is now a subclass of
Class::MOP::Object
+ - added some tests to reflect this
* Class::MOP::Class
- refactored all symbol table access to
- added the $:authority attribute to this module
as well as an &identifier method, to bring us
ever closer to Perl 6 goodness
+ - I have added $AUTHORITY to all the modules
+ - added tests for this
* Class::MOP::Instance
- added &deinitialize_slot for removing slots
