- 4.11 Sun Aug 10, 2008
    No code changes.

[DOCUMENTATION]
    - Fix POD syntax issue.

- 4.10 Tue Jun 17, 2008

This release maintains the same API public from 4.06.  Changes since the
    last stable release include documentation updates and refactors to the internal
    of CGI::Application.

[DOCUMENTATION]
    Several documentation improvements (Mark Stosberg)
    - Reformat POD so methods are easier browse on CPAN
    - Highlight some specific, common plugins to use
    - Mention that we now have two CGI::App specific testing tools to use
      Test::WWW::Mechanize::CGIApp and Test::WWW::Selenium::CGIApp 
    - Introduce and recommend CGI::Application::Dispatch 
    - Consolidated the documentation on error_mode()
    - Split out those application methods which are essential from
      those that are not. 
    - Use and recommend "$c" instead of "$self" to cut down on
      typing for something that is abstract anyway, and represented
      a simple "." in Perl 6.
    - Mention CGI::Application::Server for offline website development.
    - Update the introduction to clarify that we are a proven, lightweight
      option.
    - Removed the "experimental" flag on the error hook. 
    - Mention in the second Perl.com article in the "more reading" section. 
    - Document darcs repo URL. (Suggested by Gabor)

- 4.07_03 Mon Jun 16, 2008

[INTERNALS]
   - The refactor to split up run() in 4.07_01 started to always pass the run mode 
     name as an argument to run modes. The behavior has now been reverted to
     only pass the run mode name in the AUTOLOAD case. (Mark Stosberg)

[DOCUMENTATION]
   - Fix typo in example. Thanks to Lesley Binks.
   - document that header_props() can be usefully called with no arguments
     to return the current headers. Thanks to neuhaus, RT#33992.

- 4.07_02 Weds Oct 31, 2007

[DOCUMENTATION]
    - typo corrections (Evan Zacks)
    - The docs for header_type() have been improved, including an example of using
      CGI::Applicatin::Plugin::Redirect (Mark Stosberg)

[INTERNALS] 
    - Reverted switch to Class::MOP in 4.07_01, which benchmarking showed
      to be slower. (Mark Stosberg)
    - Beautify the code for _send_headers (Chris Dolan, Mark Stosberg)

- 4.07_01 Sun Jul 2, 2006

[INTERNALS] 
    - Switched from using Class::ISA to Class::MOP for introspection. Class::MOP
      models the way this will be done Perl6, providing the same result. (Mark Stosberg) 
    - better test diagnostics (rjbs)
    - improve test coverage (rjbs)
    - improve consistency of checks for false/0len/undef (rjbs)
    - split &run up into chunks (not yet finalized). New methods currently include:
        __get_runmode
        __get_runmeth
        __get_body
      Feedback is welcome on whether these should be exposed to the user, with
      (possibly) better names. (rjbs)

- 4.06 Wed Apr 12, 2006
    (No code changes)
    - Updated tests to work with status codes emitted before and after CGI.pm 3.16. 
      The requirement for CGI.pm 3.16 or newer has been relaxed, so any version
      of CGI.pm will do. (Rhesa)

4.05 Wed Mar  1, 2006
    (No code changes)

-  Updated tests for redirects to check for 'Found', not 'Moved'.
       This correctly matches the standard, and was changed in CGI.pm 3.16.
       As a result, we now require CGI.pm 3.16 for consistent results.

version 4.04
- No code changes since 4.04_02. Declaring stable.

version 4.04_02
- Add support for templates stored in file handles and scalarrefs to load_tmpl(). 
  (Jason Purdy)

version 4.04_01
-  move load_tmpl hook to after we build $tmpl_file so it will always have a
  (probably) valid file to work with.

- initial support for a default template name in load_tmpl(). That means
  you can now do this:

my $t = $self->load_tmpl();

And it will default to a file named after the current run mode with a
  .html extension.

version 4.03
- Fixed important bug introduced in 4.02 in which a mode_param
  set in a sub-class would have been ignored. A new automated test
  was added to prevent this regression in the future.

version 4.02
- Documented existence of CGI::Application::Plugin::FillInForm.

- path_info option to mode_param now supports negative index numbers
  to grab the run mode name from the other end of the PATH_INFO. 
  (Thilo Planz)

- Altered how "start_mode" default is set, allowing it to be set
  through the hook system in the 'init' phase. Existing applications
  should be unaffected.

- Return value of run_modes() was documented.

- Integrate more examples of using plugins into the documentation.

- 'error' hook was added, which is executed just before error_mode() might
  be called. An example use of this would be a logging plugin that wants to
  log that the application died. Although it's unlikely to change, it is marked
  as experimental for now.

version 4.01
 NOTE: This release has an important incompatibility from the 4.0 release
 two days ago. The 'load_tmpl' hook which was just introduced has had it's
 interface changed. The change allows plug-in authors to affect the parameters
 passed to the 'new' constructor of the template object, instead of just adding
 parameters later.

version 4.0
 This release adds a major new feature of special interest to plugin
 authors: 'hooks'. This concept helps to create plugins that are more powerful
 and simpler to use for end users. See the documentation on writing plugins for
 details.

Special thanks to Cees Hek and Michael Graham for their effort to develop
 and refine the hook system.

Since the last major release, there has been an explosion of new plugins
 developed. This is an incomplete list of modules below the
 'CGI::Application::Plugin' namespace. Expect more to be added and updated soon
 with the advent of the hook system:

::AnyTemplate - Use any templating system with a unified interface 
   ::Apache - Use Apache::* modules without interference
   ::AutoRunmode - Automatically register runmodes
   ::ConfigAuto - Integration with Config::Auto
   ::Config::Context - Integration with Config::Context
   ::Config::General - Integration with Config::General
   ::Config::Simple - Integration with Config::Simple
   ::CompressGzip - Add Gzip compression 
   ::DBH - Integration with DBI
   ::LogDispatch - Integration with Log::Dispatch
   ::Session - Integration with CGI::Session
   ::Stream - Help stream files to the browser
   ::TT - Use Template::Toolkit as an alternative to HTML::Template
   ::ValidateRM - Integration with Data::FormValidator and HTML::FillInForm

The following additional changes are also present in this release:
 - Enhanced tests and documentation for error_mode(). (Rob Kinyon). 
 - Clarified Plug-in documentation (Timothy Appnel)
 - Avoid some warnings when getting run mode from PATH_INFO (Emanuele Zeppieri)
 - Use query() object to get PATH_INFO, to workaround bug in IIS web server. (Mark Stosberg)
 - Documented return value of header_props()
