+
+ - Fixed first block of startup debug messages missing when using a custom
+ logger that gets set at runtime, for example by overriding finalize_config
+ - Give a more descriptive error message when trying to load middleware that
+ does not exist.
+ - Change the way we initialize plugins to fix a bug where when using the
+ populare ConfigLoader plugin, configs merged are not available for setting
+ up middleware and data handlers (and probably other things as well).
+
+ NOTE: This change might cause issues if you had code that was relying on the
+ broken behavior. For example external configuration that was being loaded to
+ late to have effect might now take effect. Please test you code carefully and
+ be aware of this possible issue </NOTE>.
+
+ - You may now also call 'setup_middleware' as a package method if you think
+ that loading middleware via configuration is a weird or broken idea.
+ - Various POD formating fixed.
+ - Improved some documentation about what type of filehandles that ->body can
+ accept and issues that might arise.
+
+5.90051 - 2013-11-06
+ - Be more skeptical of the existance of $request->env to fix a regression
+ introduced in Catalyst::Action::REST by the previous release
+
+5.90050 - 2013-11-05
+ - Previously public predicates on the following attributes are now considered
+ private and their method names have been changed to follow Perl convention
+ for internal methods:
+
+ -- Catalyst::Request->has_io_fh ==> _has_io_fh
+ -- Catalyst::Request->has_env ==> _has_env
+ -- Catalyst::Response->has_write_fh ==> _has_write_fh
+
+ These are breaking changes but these methods were never documented and serve
+ no use for external code. If you are using thing, you need to make the noted
+ change (but please consider finding another way to do what you are trying to
+ do). t0m++ for code review of Hamburg branch.

+5.90049_006 - 2013-11-04
+ - Fixed case where test could fail when Starman was partly installed (n0body++)
+ - Fixed missing date information in previous release
+
+5.90049_005 - 2013-10-31
+ - NEW FEATURE: New Controller action attribute 'Consumes', which allows you
+ to specify the content type of the incoming request. This makes it easier
+ to create actions that only handle certain content type POST or PUT, such
+ as actions that only handle JSON or actions that only understand classic
+ HTML forms.
+ - NEW FEATURE: Request->body_data is now also populated from classic HTML
+ Forms using CGI::Struct to support nested data. For non nested data you
+ should use the classic ->body_parameters method.
+ - Removed PSGI $env keys that are added on the 'plack.request.*' namespace
+ since after discussion it was clear those keys are not part of the public
+ API. Keys removed: 'plack.request.query', 'plack.request.body',
+ 'plack.request.merged' and 'plack.request.http.body'. Altered some test
+ cases to reflect this change.

- JSON Data handler looks for both JSON::MaybeXS and JSON, and uses
whichever is first (prefering to find JSON::MaybeXS). This should
improve compatibility as you likely already have one installed.
- plack.request.body
- plack.request.merged
- plack.request.http.body
+ (NOTE: REMOVED IN 5.90049_005)
- If incoming input (from a POST or PUT) is not buffered, create the
buffer and set the correct psgi env keys to note this for downstream
psgi apps / middleware. This should solve some issues where Catalyst
