21 it isn't a hashref (t0m)
22 - Fix request argumentss getting corrupted if you override the
23 dispatcher and call an action which detaches (for
24 Catalyst::Plugin::Authorization::ACL) (t0m)

45 method in a plugin, as used by Catalyst::Plugin::Server (t0m)

51 - Change streaming test to serve itself rather than 01use.t, making
52 test sync for engines easier (t0m)

58 rather than the stringified ref. (t0m)

72 for the setup_log method, which previously had none.
73 Sewn together by t0m from two patches provided by David E. Wheeler
74 - Switch an around 'new' in Catalyst::Controller to a BUILDARGS
75 method as it's much neater and more obvious what is going on (t0m)

77 attributes, and use if from ::Engine rather than deleting
78 the key from the instance hash (t0m)
79 - Use handles on tree attribute of Catalyst::Stats to replace
80 trivial delegation methods (t0m)
81 - Change the following direct hash accesses into attributes:

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

247 - Allow multiple restart directories and added option to follow
