-Known issues:
+# Known Bugs:
- - Catalyst-Log-Log4perl Deep recursion on subroutine "MockApp::setup" due
- to Adopt::NEXT not remembering which setup methods were already called
- and which not, like NEXT does. Log::Log4perl needs to be fixed and the
- problem should be described in Upgrading.pod. (rafl)
+ - Bug ->go or ->visit causes actions which have Args or CaptureArgs called
+ twice when called via ->go or ->visit.
- - MX::Emulate::CAF - list assignment (see notes in Upgrading.pod and
- branch in svn)
+ Test app: http://github.com/bobtfish/catalyst-app-bug-go_chain/tree/master
- - Catalyst::Plugin::Session::State::Cookie - cookie_name is undefined
- unless explicitly configured because setup_session isn't executed.
+# Compatibility warnings to add:
-Documentation:
+ - $self->config should warn as config should only ever be called as a
+ class method (TESTS).
- - Catalyst/Upgrading.pod needs brushing up
+# Proposed functionality / feature additions:
- - Warning when you pass $c->model("MyApp::Model::Foo") is the generic
- warning for regex fall back. Should be more specific about what you
- screwed up, and the docs for $c->model should be more explicit about
- what is expected. This probably also applies to view/controller.
+## Log setup needs to be less lame
-Profiling:
+So Catalyst::Plugin::Log::* can die
+in a fire. Having $c->log_class would be a good start. kane volunteered
+to do some of this.
- - vs 5.70 and optimisation as needed.
+Simple example: Catalyst::Plugin::Log::Colorful should just be a
+subclass of Catalyst::Log, no ::Plugin:: needed.

+
+## Capture arguments that the plack engine component was run with somewhere,
+ to more easily support custom args from scripts (e.g. Gitalist's
+ --git_dir)
+
+## throw away the restarter and allow using the restarters Plack provides
+
+## remove per-request state from the engine instance
+
+## be smarter about how we use PSGI - not every response needs to be delayed
+ and streaming
+
+# The horrible hack for plugin setup - replacing it:
+
+ * Have a look at the Devel::REPL BEFORE_PLUGIN stuff
+ I wonder if what we need is that combined with plugins-as-roles
+
+ * Catalyst::Engine::HTTP::Prefork no longer works since it requires
+ Catalyst::Engine::CGI which no longer is in the cataplack distribution.
+ Investigation shows moving CE:CGI to CE:HTTP:Prefork allows tests to pass.
+
+# PSGI
+
+## To do at release time
+
+ - Release psgi branch of Catalyst-Devel
+ - Release new Task::Catalyst
+ - Release 5.9 branch of Catalyst-Manual
+ - Release Catalyst::Engine::HTTP::Prefork with deprecation notice
+ (and maybe compat?)
+
+## Blockers
+
+ * Better docs for stopping using Engine::HTTP::Prefork and
+ starting using Starman, maybe?
+
+ * Test::WWW::Mechanize::Catalyst new release
+
+ * Test nginx middleware to determine if it is needed with:
+
+ root app - with use_request_uri_for_path
+ root app - without use_request_uri_for_path
+ non-root app - with use_request_uri_for_path
+ non-root app - without use_request_uri_for_path
+
+ If it isn't needed, remove. If it is needed, split it out into it's own
+ file and document why it's needed.
+
+ * I've noticed a small difference with Catalyst::Test. The latest stable
+ version include two headers, 'host' and 'https'. They are missing from
+ this version - Pedro Melo on list
+ ^^ Cannot replicate this? Mailed back to ask for tests..
+
+# App / ctx split:
+
+ NOTE - these are notes that t0m thought up after doing back compat for
+ catalyst_component_class, may be inaccurate, wrong or missing things
+ bug mst (at least) to correct before trying more than the first 2
+ steps. Please knock yourself out on the first two however :)
+
+ - Eliminate actions in MyApp from the main test suite
+ - Uncomment warning in C::C::register_action_methods, add tests it works
+ by mocking out the logging..
+ - Remove MyApp @ISA controller (ask metaclass if it has attributes, and if
+ so you need back compat :/)
+ - Make Catalyst::Context, move the per request stuff in there, handles from
+ main app class to delegate
+ - Make an instance of the app class which is a global variable
+ - Make new instance of the context class, not the app class per-request
+ - Remove the components as class data, move to instance data on the app
+ class (you probably have to do this for _all_ the class data, good luck!)
+ - Make it possible for users to spin up different instances of the app class
+ (with different config etc each)
+ - Profit! (Things like changing the complete app config per vhost, i.e.
+ writing a config loader / app class role which dispatches per vhost to
+ differently configured apps is piss easy)
