1.3403    2018-10-11 23:41:11+01:00 Europe/London (TRIAL RELEASE)
[ENHANCEMENTS]
 - request->address now respects behind_proxy - if behind_proxy is set,
   then request->address looks at HTTP_X_FORWARDED_FOR, so you get the

 - restore ability to use load_settings_from_yaml() without passing
   YAML parser class (PR-1198, snakpak)

   with HTTP proxy env vars set fail tests (PR-1197, bigpresh)
- Tidied POD for Tutorial (PR-1196, manwar)
 
1.3402    2018-10-10 11:42:07+01:00 Europe/London (TRIAL RELEASE)

 - Fix YAML-related test failures if YAML::XS not installed
   (GH 1184, PR 1189, bigpresh)

 [BUG FIXES]

   populated (GH 1187, PR 1188, bigpresh, reported by skington)

 [DOCUMENTATION]

   serialisation (there was already an attempt at this in place, and it was
   documented as posisble, but didn't work) (PR 1164, 1nickt)
 - New test method response_redirect_like (PR 1159, 1nickt)
 - New config option raw_request_body_in_ram, which controls whether the
   raw request body is available via request->body or not.  See Issue #1140
   for the problems the previous approach, of getting it from the temp file
   that HTTP::Body might (or might not) have written it to.
 - Validate session IDs read from client - GH #1172 - potential security
   risk if the session provider in use passes the session ID in a way
   where injection is possible.

   on by using 127.0.0.10 instead (more of a hacky workaround than a fix,

 - Make request->body work again for URL-encoded POST requests - Issue 1140
   reported by miyagawa (bigpresh)
 - Validate session IDs read from cookies before passing to session engine,
   to protect against any engine that might feed that value straight to a
   file path for security - Issue 1118 (bigpresh)

 [DOCUMENTATION]
 - Better doc for forward_for_address (PR 1146, Relequestual)

1.1999_03 2010-11-11
 [Al Newkirk]
 - fixed redirect to redirect immediately (+ refactoring by franck)

 [Alexis Sukrieh]
 - Transparent unicode support Dancer now takes care transparently of
   decoding unicode strings used within route handlers and encoding them
   back before sending a response content. Once the 'charset' setting is
   set, the user has nothing more to do to have a working unicode-aware
   application.
 - FIX for issue #172 More documentation added to Dancer::Request, all
   public method are documented. A pod coverage test has been added for
   this module.
 - Documentation update The deployment documentation is more precise about
   cgi/fast-cgi deployment under Apache.
 - FIX for issue GH#171 Scaffolded configuration files are fully commented
   in order to quickly guide the user in her first steps.

   (realpath() on Windows fails when path doesn't exist)

1.1999_02 2010-10-15
 [Alexis Sukrieh]
 - FIX for issue GH #151 utf8 pragma is imported automatically when Dancer
   is loaded to allow the usage of UTF-8 strings in the application code.
   (Thanks to kocoureasy for the report).
 - FIX for "UTF-8" issues (GH#153): - response content is encoded only if
   content_type is text - charset setting is normalized to UTF-8 when
   appropriate - automatically decode UTF-8 strings in params
 - FIX scaffolded dispatchers (script/dancer) The PLACK_ENV variable is not
   propagated by Apoache to the dispatchers (at least with our Deployment
   examples) so the dispatchers aren't aware of the PSGI context if we
   don't tell them explicitly. This patch forces the dispatchers in PSGI
   mode.
 - FIX (unknown bug) When a serializer is set and show_errors is true,
   don't expose internal errors caught.

 [Damien Krotkine]
 - replace all die and warn with croak and carp

 [Adam J. Foxson]
 - FIX for issue GH#136: "readline() on closed filehandle DATA" error that
   appears when running the app with Starman

 [Alexis Sukrieh]
 - FIX for utf8 content in views Dancer now handles correctly templates
   with non-ASCII characters in views. All you have to do is to set the
   "charset" setting in your config. Your content response will then be
   encoded appropriately on-the-fly by Dancer.
 - Scaffolded app sets the charset to "utf8" by default.
 - Better design for the scaffolded app (logo, favicon and background image
   added)
 - Environment info available on scaffolded app
 - LWP is used by the dancer helper to download files
 - jQuery 1.4.2 (minified) is included in the scaffolded app
 - default layout uses <% request.base %> in order to support mounted apps
   (Thanks to Naveed Massjouni and Franck Cuny for the concept/idea).
 - The main.tt layout sources jQuery first from Google CDN and falls back
   to the local minified version if on offline mode.
 - New default token provided to the "template" helper: dancer_version

 [Damien Krotkine]
 - FIX for issue GH#115 documentation about compression in
   Dancer::Deployment

1.1901 2010-09-24
 [Alexis Sukrieh]
 - load_plugin is DEPRECATED; 'use' should be used instead to load a
   plugin. This is fixes the major issue with plugins about symbol exports
   that didn't work well (issue #101).
 - All paths built in a scaffolded application are dynamic, it's now
   possible to move a scaffolded application after it's been generated.
   (fixes issues #88,
 - The auto_reload feature is now disabled by default due to too many
   unsolved issues (it works most of the time, but some race conditions are
   still present) This feature is still being working on, but it's now
   flagged "experimental").
 - Default log level in development environment is now 'core' in order to
   provide more information.
 - New scaffolded application design. More neutral and with lots of
   information for a beginner, and links to useful material. Based on the
   Ruby on Rails start page (kudos to the Rails team,
   http://www.rubyonrails.org).

 [Boris Shomodjvarac]
 - Support for a clean way for Template engines to define their template
   file extensions (issue #126).

   idea.

   string.
