+=head1 Version 0.85
+
+L<Moose::AttributeHelpers> has been moved into the Moose core from
+L<MooseX::AttributeHelpers>.  Major changes include:
+
+=over
+
+=item C<traits>, not C<metaclass>
+
+All of the method providers are available via traits only.  The custom
+metaclasses were strictly inferior to applying attribute metaclass traits.
+
+=item C<handles>, not C<provides> or C<curries>
+
+C<provides> syntax was like core Moose C<< handles => HASHREF >> syntax, but
+with the keys and values reversed.  This was confusing, and
+AttributeHelpers now uses C<< handles => HASHREF >> in a way that
+should be intuitive to anyone already familiar with it for normal attributes.
+
+The C<curries> functionality provided by AttributeHelpers has been generalized
+to apply to all cases of C<< handles => HASHREF >>, though not every piece of
+functionality has been ported (currying with a CODEREF is not supported).

+See L<Moose::AttributeHelpers> for the new documentation.
