4 - Fixes for FastCGI with IIS 6.0 (janus)
5 - Passing request method exported by Catalyst::Test an extra
6 parameter used to be ignored, but started breaking if the parameter
7 was not a hash in 5.8000_04. Extra parameter is now ignored if
8 it isn't a hashref (t0m)
9 - Fix request argumentss getting corrupted if you override the
10 dispatcher and call an action which detaches (for
11 Catalyst::Plugin::Authorization::ACL) (t0m)
12 - Fix calling use Catalyst::Test 'MyApp' 'foo' which used to work,
13 but stopped as the 2nd parameter can be an options hash now (t0m)

22 Catalyst::Dispatcher (t0m)
23 - Replace {_body} instance access with calls to _body accessors (t0m)
24 - Add backwards compatibility alias methods for private attributes on

29 method on the requests HTTP::Body instance (t0m)
31 - Fix calling $c->req->body from inside an overridden prepare_action
32 method in a plugin, as used by Catalyst::Plugin::Server (t0m)
34 - Fix assignment to Catalyst::Dispatcher's preload_dispatch_types and
35 postload_dispatch_types attributes - assigning a list should later
36 return a listref. Fixes Catalyst::Plugin::Server. (t0m)
37 - Tests for this (t0m)
38 - Change streaming test to serve itself rather than 01use.t, making
39 test sync for engines easier (t0m)

45 rather than the stringified ref. (t0m)

59 for the setup_log method, which previously had none.
60 Sewn together by t0m from two patches provided by David E. Wheeler
61 - Switch an around 'new' in Catalyst::Controller to a BUILDARGS
62 method as it's much neater and more obvious what is going on (t0m)
63 - Add a clearer method on request and response _context
64 attributes, and use if from ::Engine rather than deleting
65 the key from the instance hash (t0m)
66 - Use handles on tree attribute of Catalyst::Stats to replace
67 trivial delegation methods (t0m)
68 - Change the following direct hash accesses into attributes:

184 - Refactored component resolution (component(), models(), model(), et al). We now
185 throw warnings for two reasons:
186 1) model() or view() was called with no arguments, and two results are returned
187 -- set default_(model|view), current_(model|view) or current_(model|view)_instance
189 2) you call a component resolution method with a string, and it resorts to a regexp
190 fallback wherein a result is returned -- if you really want to search, call the
191 method with a regex as the argument

234 - Allow multiple restart directories and added option to follow
