5 keep-alive requests. (andyg)
6 - Fixes for FastCGI with IIS 6.0 (janus)
7 - Passing request method exported by Catalyst::Test an extra

9 was not a hash in 5.8000_04. Extra parameter is now ignored if
10 it isn't a hashref (t0m)
11 - Fix request argumentss getting corrupted if you override the
12 dispatcher and call an action which detaches (for
13 Catalyst::Plugin::Authorization::ACL) (t0m)
14 - Fix calling use Catalyst::Test 'MyApp' 'foo' which used to work,
15 but stopped as the 2nd parameter can be an options hash now (t0m)

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

47 rather than the stringified ref. (t0m)

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

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

236 - Allow multiple restart directories and added option to follow
