 Revision history for Perl extension Class-MOP.
 
+0.34
+    * 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.
+        
+    * 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
+
+0.33 Sat. Aug. 19, 2006
+    * 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 
+        with symbol tables. The namespace hash is now 
+        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).
+
+    * Class::MOP::Package
+      - refactored entire class, this is now 
+        the primary gateway between the metaclass
+        and the Perl 5 symbol table
+        - 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 
+        use Class::MOP::Package methods instead
+        
+    * Class::MOP::Module
+      - adding the $:version attribute in the bootstrap
+        so that Module has a version as an attribute
+        - see comment in Class::MOP for details
+      - 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 
+        from an instance
+        - added tests for this      
+      
+    * Class::MOP::Attribute 
+      - added support for &deinitialize_slot for removing
+        slots from an instance
+        - added tests for this
