16 - Clean up recursion errors
17 - Extra cross links in dispatch types POD (Ian Wells)
18 - Test uri_with clears query params when they are set to undef

23 5.8000_07 2009-04-12 13:37
24 - Add the Catalyst::Dispatcher->dispatch_type method (ash)
25 - Throw an exception rather than loading an app if an action
26 tries to chain to itself (t0m)

29 CaptureArgs, making them useful to call ActionChains with (t0m)
30 - Tests for this (radek)

32 for dispatchable actions so that ->visit or ->going to ActionChains
33 with qw/Class::Name method_name/ works correctly (t0m)
34 - Tests for this (radek)
35 - Added Catalyst::Test::ctx_request to be able to inspect
36 the context object after a request is made (Jos Boumans)
37 - debug() POD rewrite (jhannah)
38 - Change the warning when you have conflicting components to
40 - Move NEXT use and testing deprecated features out to its own
41 test application so that the main TestApp isn't polluted with
42 spurious warnings (t0m)

50 the restarter process (t0m)
51 - Non-naive implementation of making mutable on restart using
52 B::Hooks::OP::Check::StashChange if installed (t0m)
53 - Tests for this (t0m)
54 - Naive implementation of making all components mutable in the
55 forked restart watcher process so native Moose apps using
56 immutable restart correctly. (t0m)
57 - Tests for this (t0m)
58 - Bump Moose dependency to 0.70 so that we avoid nasty surprises

134 - Replace {_body} instance access with calls to _body accessors (t0m)

295 - Refactored component resolution (component(), models(), model(), et al). We now
296 throw warnings for two reasons:
297 1) model() or view() was called with no arguments, and two results are returned

301 fallback wherein a result is returned -- if you really want to search, call the
302 method with a regex as the argument
