 Revision history for Perl extension Class-MOP.
 
+0.78_01 Wed, March 18, 2009
+    * Class::MOP::*
+      - Revised and reorganized all of the API documentation. All
+        classes now have (more or less) complete API documentation.
+
+    * Class::MOP::Class
+    * Class::MOP::Immutable
+      - A big backwards-incompatible refactoring of the Immutable API,
+        and the make_immutable/make_mutable pieces of the Class API.
+
+    * Class::MOP::Class
+    * Class::MOP::Instance
+      - Reblessing into a package that supports overloading wasn't
+        properly adding overload magic to the object due to a bug
+        in (at least) 5.8.8. We now use $_[1] directly which seems
+        to set the magic properly. (Sartak)
+
+    * Class::MOP::Attribute
+      - The process_accessors method is now private. A public alias
+        exists (and will stick around for a few releases), but it
+        warns that calling the public method is deprecated.
+
+    * Class::MOP::Method::Generated
+      - Removed the new and _new methods, since this is an abstract
+        base class, and all existing subclasses implement their own
+        constructors.
+
+    * MOP.xs
+      - Stop is_class_loaded from thinking a class is loaded if it
+        only has an empty GV (Florian Ragwitz).
+        - Add a test for this (Yappo).
+      - Refactor get_all_package_symbols to allow short-circuiting
+        (Florian Ragwitz).
+        - Use this in is_class_loaded (Florian Ragwitz).
+      - Stop segfaulting when trying to get the name from a sub that's
+        still being compiled (Florian Ragwitz).
+        - Add tests for this (Florian Ragwitz).
+      - Prefix all public symbols with "mop_" (Florian Ragwitz).
+      - Clean up and simplify prehashing of hash keys (Florian Ragwitz).
+      - Simplify creating simple xs reader methods (Florian Ragwitz).
+      - Make everything compile with c++ compilers (Florian Ragwitz).
+      - Upgrade ppport.h from 3.14 to 3.17 (Florian Ragwitz).
+
+    * Tests
+      - Remove optional test plans for tests depending on Sub::Name as
+        we have a hard dependency on Sub::Name anyway (Florian Ragwitz).
+
+    * Makefile.PL
+      - Rebuild all c code if mop.h has changed (Florian Ragwitz)
+
+0.78 Mon, February 23, 2009
+    * No changes from 0.77_01
+
+0.77_01 Sun, February 22, 2009
+    * Everything
+      - This package now requires its XS components. Not using
+        Sub::Name lead to different behavior and bugginess in the pure
+        Perl version of the code. A Moose test would fail when run
+        against the pure Perl version of this code.
+
+    * Class::MOP::Instance
+      - The inline_* methods now quote attribute names themselves, and
+        don't expect to receive a quoted value.
+
+
+0.77 Sat, February 14, 2009
+    * MOP.xs
+      - Avoid assertion errors on debugging perls in is_class_loaded
+        (Florian Ragwitz)
+
+    * Class::MOP
+      - Fixed various corner cases where is_class_loaded incorrectly
+        returned true for a class that wasn't really loaded. (Dave
+        Rolsky)
+
+    * Class::MOP::Class
+      - Add get_all_method_names (Sartak)
+      - Add a wrapped_method_metaclass attribute (Florian Ragwitz)
+
+    * Class::MOP::Package
+      - Disable deprecated get_all_package_symbols in list
+        context. (Florian Ragwitz)
+
+    * Makefile.PL
+      - Make sure we generate a BSD-compatible Makefile (Florian
+        Ragwitz)
+
+    * Class::MOP::Class
+      - The misspelled "check_metaclass_compatability" method we've
+        kept around for backwards compat_i_bility will be removed in a
+        near future release. You've been warned.
+
+0.76 Thu, January 22, 2009
+    * Class::MOP::Method::Generated
+      - Added new private methods to support code generation, which
+        are being used by Moose and can be used by MooseX
+        authors. (mst)
+      - Generated methods are now generated with a #line directive
+        reflecting the source of the generated method. (nothingmuch)
+
+    * Class::MOP::Class
+      - Clarified documentation of methods that return
+        Class::MOP::Method objects. (doy)
+
+    * Class::MOP
+      - Clarified documentation of the metaclass cache methods. (Sartak)
+
+    * Tests
+      - Add test showing how the xs Class::MOP::is_class_loaded can
+        be made to operate differently to the pure perl version (t0m)
+
 0.75 Wed, December 31, 2008
     * Class::MOP::Class
       - A class that was made immutable and then mutable could end up
