+ - JSON Data handler looks for both JSON::MaybeXS and JSON, and uses
+ whichever is first (prefering to find JSON::MaybeXS). This should
+ improve compatibility as you likely already have one installed.
+ - Fixed a warning in the server script (bokutin++)
+ - We now populate various Plack $env keys in order to play nice with
+ downstream middleware or plack apps (and to reduce processing if
+ those keys already exist). Keys added:
+ - plack.request.query
+ - plack.request.body
+ - plack.request.merged
+ - plack.request.http.body
+ - If incoming input (from a POST or PUT) is not buffered, create the
+ buffer and set the correct psgi env keys to note this for downstream
+ psgi apps / middleware. This should solve some issues where Catalyst
+ sucks up the body input but its not buffered so downstream apps can't
+ read it (for example FCGI does not buffer). We now also try to make
+ sure the body content input is reset to the start of the filehandle
+ so that we are polite to downstream middleware /apps.
+ - NEW FEATURE: Catalyst::Response can now pull response from a PSGI
+ specification response. This makes it easier to host external Plack
+ applications under Catalyst. See Catalyst::Response->from_psgi_response
+ - NEW FEATURE: New configuration option 'use_hash_multivalue_in_request'
+ will populate $request methods 'parameters', 'body_parameters' and
+ 'query_parameters' with an instance of Hash::MultiValue instead of a
+ HashRef. This is used by Plack and is intended to reduce the need to
+ write defensive logic since you are never sure if an incoming parameter
+ is a scalar or arrayref.
+ - NEW FEATURE: We now experimentally support Net::Async::HTTP::Server
+ and IO-Async based event loops. Examples will follow.

+ - Documented the new body_data method added in the previous release
+ - Merged from master many important bugfixes and forward compatiblity
+ updates, including:
+ - Use modern preferred method for Moose metaclass access and many other
+ small changes to how we use Moose for better forward compat (ether++)
+ - Killed some evil use of $@ (ether++)
+ - spelling fixes and documentation updates (ether++), (gerda++)
+ - use Test::Fatal over Test::Exception (ether++)
+ - Misc. test case fixes to modernize code (ether++)
+ - Added a first pass cpanfile, to try and make it easier to bootstrap
+ a development setup (ether++)
