Fixed up self-compliance issues in NamingConventions::Capitalization.

[gknop/Perl-Critic.git] / Changes

[1.xxx] Released on 2008-xx-xx

    Incompatible change:
    * The deprecated $FORMAT variables for Perl::Critic::Policy and
      Perl::Critic::Violation no longer exist.  Use the corresponding
      get_format() and set_format() functions instead.

    New Developer Features:
    * Perl::Critic::Policy::is_document_exempt() has been renamed to
      prepare_to_scan_document() and the sense of the return value has been
      reversed in order to make it indicative of being more generally useful.

    Policy Changes:
    * InputOutput::RequireCheckedClose, InputOutput::RequireCheckedOpen, and
      InputOutput::RequireCheckedSyscalls now all support autodie.
      Unfortunately, autodie is currently treated like a module and not a
      pragma, which means that the lexical scoping is not taken into account.
    * Modules::ProhibitEvilModules now allows you to specify what the
      description of a use of a bad module should be, to, say, suggest that
      people use autodie instead of Fatal.
    * Subroutine::ProhibitExcessComplexity violation descriptions now include
      the name of the subroutine, thanks to Andreas Koenig, RT #40070.

    New Policies:
    * Miscellanea::ProhibitUnrestrictedNoCritic
    * Variables::ProhibitReusedNames

[1.093_01] Released on 2008-09-07

    New Developer Features:
    * Perl::Critic::Policy::is_document_exempt() is checked prior to scanning
      and thus can speed things up.

    Bug Fixes:
    * Miscellanea::RequireRcsKeywords couldn't find keywords after __END__
      that didn't look like part of POD.
    * Modules::RequireFilenameMatchesPackage would incorrectly complain about
      programs.  Yet more greatness contributed by Schwern.  RT #39024.

[1.092] Released on 2008-09-02

    Bug Fixes:
    * Fixed POD errors that were causing build failures.  Sorry
      about that.

[1.091] Released on 2008-09-01

    New Policies:
    * RegularExpressions::RequireDotMatchAnything

    New Features:
    * perlcritic now supports a -pager option, so you can more easily
      send the output to your favorite pager.  You can set this option
      on the command-line or in your .perlcriticrc file.  See the
      perlcritic perldoc for more details.  Credit to Michael Schwern.
    * The output from "perlcritic -doc PATTERN" will be automatically
      sent to your pager if you have set the -pager option.
 
    Policy Changes:
    * CodeLayout::ProhibitQuotedWordLists no longer applies if the list
      contains any non-words, by default.  A non-word is anything that does
      not match /[\w-]+/.  You can restore the former behavior by setting the
      "strict" option.  RT #37886.
    * CodeLayout::ProhibitQuotedWordLists also now applies to the import
      arguments of a C<use> statement.  RT #24467.
    * ErrorHandling::RequireCheckingReturnValueOfEval now recognizes ternary
      left-sides as valid checks.
    * RegularExpressions::RequireExtendedFormatting gains a
      minimum_regex_length_to_complain_about option.  Also, regexes that
      contain only word and whitespace characters are now exempt from this
      policy, by default; you can make it complain about them by turning on
      the new strict option.  Contributed by Michael Schwern.  RT #38531.
    * TestingAndDebugging::ProhibitNoWarnings now supports a
      allow_with_category_restriction option, thanks to Michael Schwern.
      RT #38514.
    * CodeLayout::ProhibitHardTabs now allows leading tabs in qw() word lists 
      and regexes with the /x modifier.  You can still configure this
      policy to forbid all hard tabs, if you like.  RT #32440

    Bug Fixes:
    * perlcritic should now work under PAR.  RT #38380.
    * URL for our repository in META.yml now works for anonymous
      checkout.  The password is "" (empty).  RT #38628. 
    * color for high-severity violations is now magenta because 
      it is more redable than yellow on white backgrounds.  RT #38511.

[1.090] Released on 2008-07-22

    Bug Fixes:
    * Test was incorrectly failing when Regexp::Parser wasn't installed.

[1.089] Released on 2008-07-21

    Minor Enhancements:
    * -s is now a synonym for --single-policy.

    Policy Changes:
    * Subroutines::ProhibitBuiltinHomonyms now also prohibits subroutines 
      with the same name as a Perl keyword (e.g. if, foreach, while).
      Inspired by RT #37632.
    * Subroutines::ProtectPrivateSubs now allows expressions like
      "shift->_some_private_method();".  Note that this *only* applies
      to the "shift" function -- a private method call on the right of any
      other bareword still causes a violation.  RT #34713.
    * Subroutines::RequireFinalReturn now includes exec in the set of things
      that mark a successful return.  RT #37672
    * ValuesAndExpressions::ProhibitInterpolationOfLiterals now takes a
      allow_if_string_contains_single_quote option.  Contributed by Ed
      Avis <ed@membled.com>.  RT #36125.
    * ValuesAndExpressions::RequireInterpolationOfMetachars now supports a
      rcs_keywords option to allow for the common case where those require
      dollar signs.

    Bug Fixes:
    * BuiltinFunctions::ProhibitSleepViaSelect would complain if there were
      three undefs as arguments to select(), but one of them was the timeout.
      RT #37416.
    * Reduced false positives in
      RegularExpressions::ProhibitSingleCharAlternation.  Thanks to
      Andy Lester and Elliot Shank test cases.
    * RegularExpressions::ProhibitUnusedCapture would complain if there were
      multiple captures used in a substitution, e.g. s/(.)(.)/$2$1/.
    * Subroutines::ProhibitAmpersandSigils no longer complains about
      "sort &foo(...)".
    * Makefile.PL, Build.PL and other ".PL" scripts which typically do not
      have a shebang are no longer mistaken as modules.  This prevents
      spurious warnings from Modules::RequireEndWithOne.  RT #20481.

    Internals:
    * Tests are now self compliant.

[1.088] Released on 2008-07-04

    New Policies
    * ErrorHandling::RequireCheckingReturnValueOfEval

    Policy Changes:
    * ValuesAndExpressions::ProhibitLeadingZeros now accepts octal numbers
      for the Unix permissions argument to chmod, dbmopen, mkdir, sysopen, or
      umask, by default.  Use the "strict" option to get the old behavior.
      RT #31977.
    * Due to the consensus at YAPC::NA 2008,
      Variables::ProhibitUnusedVariables default severity has been raised to
      medium/3.

    Minor Changes:
    * The perlcritic "--Version" option is now "--version" in order to act
      like the rest of the world.

[1.087] Released on 2008-06-21

    Policy Changes:
    * CodeLayout::ProhibitParensWithBuiltins no longer complains about
      sort(foo(@x)).
    * TestingAndDebugging::RequireUseWarnings will not complain about files
      that contain a "use 5.005" statement or similar for perls prior to 5.6.
      Lesson of the day: computer conferences where you can meet in the real
      world can clarify conversations greatly.  Good to finally meet you Adam.
    * InputOutput::ProhibitTwoArgOpen similarly will not complain if there's
      a "use/require 5.005" statement in the file.  RT #34385.

    Bug fixes:
    * Perl::Critic can now critique a file named "0".  However, PPI will give
      a parse error until the next version comes out.  Fixes RT #36127.
    * Moved detection of the lack of any enabled Policies from P::C::Config
      to Perl::Critic.  This was causing the perlcritic.t in Parrot to fail.
      Note, however, there are plans afoot to change how Perl::Critic is
      configured and things that depend upon that may break.  Please contact
      users@perlcritic.tigris.org and tell us how you're using P::C::Config
      directly so that we can take your needs into account.

[1.086] Released on 2008-06-12

    Policy Changes:
    * NamingConventions::ProhibitAmbiguousNames now specifies the name that
      it had problems with in its violation descriptions.

    Bug fixes:
    * The color option wasn't being correctly set from a .perlcriticrc.
      RT #36569.

    Minor changes:
    * --colour is now a synonym for --color.

[1.085] Released on 2008-06-07

    New Policies:
    * Documentation::RequirePackageMatchesPodName

    Policy Changes:
    * Variables::ProhibitUnusedVariables detects a few more cases.  It's
      still very limited, though.

    Bug fixes:
    * ControlStructures::ProhibitUnreachableCode didn't notice "until" was an
      conditional expression.

    Minor documentation updates.

[1.084] Released on 2008-05-24

    New Features:
    * perlcritic now supports a --list-themes option.
    * You can specify the maximum number of violations you want per Policy
      per document.  Developers can give a default value for this for a
      Policy by overriding default_maximum_violations_per_document().
      See RequireUseStrict and ProhibitMagicNumbers for examples.

    Policy Moved:
    * The ValuesAndExpressions::ProhibitMagicNumbers policy has been moved
      from Perl::Critic::More into the primary Perl::Critic distribution.

    New Policies:
    * Variables::ProhibitUnusedVariables (very dumb, limited initial
      implementation.)
    * ControlStructures::ProhibitLabelsWithSpecialBlockNames
      Contributed by Mike O'Regan.  Kickin' ass, Mike.

    Policy Changes:
    * ControlStructures::ProhibitUnreachableCode now handles the perl 5.10
      "//" and "err" operators.  RT #36080
    * InputOutput::RequireBriefOpen now ignores opens of STDIN, STDOUT,
      and STDERR.  You're generally trying to make long-lasting global
      effects when manipulating these.  (RT #35774)
    * RegularExpressions::ProhibitUnusualDelimiters now supports an
      "allow_all_brackets" option.
    * RegularExpressions::RequireBracesForMultiline now supports an
      "allow_all_brackets" option.
    * TestingAndDebugging::RequireUseStrict now accepts "use Moose::Role"
      as equivalent to "use strict".  (RT #34838)
    * TestingAndDebugging::RequireUseWarnings now accepts "use Moose::Role"
      as equivalent to "use warnings".  (RT #34838)
    * ValuesAndExpressions::ProhibitMagicNumbers now accepts constant
      subroutines.
    * Variables::ProhibitMatchVars no longer detects "use English;".
      This problem is detected in a more clear way by
      Modules::RequireNoMatchVarsWithUseEnglish.
    * Variables::ProhibitPerl4PackageNames no longer complains about
      $'/$POSTMATCH.  RT #36059
    * Variables::RequireLocalizedPunctuationVars now allows the use of "my".
      RT #33937

    Bug Fixes:
    * No longer falls over if a single file has a parse error.

    New Developer Features:
    * If a document specifies a minimum perl version, e.g. "use 5.008003",
      P::C::Document::highest_explicit_perl_version() will tell you what it
      is.
    * The parameter to P::C::Policy::initialize_if_enabled is now a
      P::C::PolicyConfig object instead of a hash reference.

    Minor Changes:
    * LOTS of documentation updates.
    * A few more statistics are emitted by perlcritic with the --statistics
      option.
    * perlcritic --profile-proto now includes policy abstracts in its
      output.

    Prerequisites:
    * Now depends upon PPI 1.203.
    * New dependency upon version.

[1.083_002] Released on 2008-05-17
[1.083_001] Released on 2008-04-13

    Changes summarized into 1.084 above.  For exact details, see Changes in
    1.083_006 on BackPAN.

[1.082] Released on 2008-03-08

    New Features:
    * A new metadata system for defining policy parameters/options has been
      added.  This makes the life of policy authors easier because
      configuration validation and parsing can be taken care of
      automatically, in most cases.  This allows greater integration with
      IDEs and allows the perlcritic "--profile-proto" option to produce
      better output.

      Note: This change does NOT REQUIRE ANY CHANGES to policies outside of
      this distribution; they should continue to work as is.  However, use
      of this facility can reduce the size of your code and provide the
      means for tools to discover more about your policy.  If this change
      does break any of your policies, please let us know.

      To learn how to take advantage of this facility, read
      Perl::Critic::DEVELOPER and look at the source of any of the
      configurable policies included in this distribution.

      There is a discussion of the design considerations for this facility in
      the source repository under doc/PolicyParameter_Notes.pod.

    * Added support for "criticism-fatal" option in your perlcriticrc
      file.  This will be used by the criticism pragma to cause execution
      to abort if the file contains any violations.

    New Policy:
    * Module::RequireNoMatchVarsWithUseEnglish

    Policy Changes:
    * Added an allow_last_statement_to_be_comma_separated_in_map_and_grep
      option to ValuesAndExpressions::ProhibitCommaSeparatedStatements.
      Partial response to http://rt.cpan.org/Public/Bug/Display.html?id=27654.
    * ControlStructures::ProhibitPostfixControls gains the ability to have
      the flow control statements allowed to be modified.  This in response
      to RT #29540.
    * TestingAndDebugging::RequireUseStrict now accepts "use Moose" as
      equivalent to "use strict".
    * TestingAndDebugging::RequireUseWarnings now accepts "use Moose" as
      equivalent to "use warnings".

    Bug Fixes:
    * RT #31281 perlcritic doesn't recognize "#!/bin/env perl" shebang
    * Replace usage of Unicode property escapes with POSIX character classes
      order to restore 5.6 compatability.
    * RT #30388 ValuesAndExpressions::ProhibitVersionStrings complained
      about numbered directories in "use lib".
    * Fixed handling of badly behaved spelling programs in PodSpelling.

[1.081_006] Released on 2008-03-02

[1.081_004] Released on 2007-12-20
[1.081_003] Released on 2007-12-16
[1.081_002] Released on 2007-12-16
[1.081_001] Released on 2007-12-15

    Changes summarized into 1.082 above.  For exact details, see Changes in
    1.081_006 on BackPAN.

[1.080] Released on 2007-11-11

    New Features:
    * Allow a "## no critic" statement after a shebang on line 1 of a
      file.  This allows users to block violations that apply to
      whole files and still allow shebangs.

    New Policies: (funded by a Perl Foundation grant)
    * InputOutput::ProhibitExplicitStdin
    * RegularExpressions::ProhibitFixedStringMatches
    * RegularExpressions::RequireBracesForMultiline
    * RegularExpressions::ProhibitUnusualDelimiters
    * RegularExpressions::ProhibitUnusedCapture
    * RegularExpressions::ProhibitComplexRegexes
    * RegularExpressions::ProhibitSingleCharAlternation
    * RegularExpressions::ProhibitEscapedMetacharacters
    * RegularExpressions::ProhibitEnumeratedClasses
    * InputOutput::RequireBriefOpen
    * InputOutput::RequireCheckedSyscalls

    Other New Policies
    * ControlStructures::ProhibitNegativeExpressionsInUnlessAndUntilConditions

    Policy Changes:
    * Variables::ProhibitConditionalDeclarations now permits you to local-ize
      variables in conditional declarations.  This makes sense, since
      C<local> is actually a variable modifier, rather than a declaration.
      Thanks to David Golden for reporting this.

    New Developer Features:
    * Perl::Critic::Utils::PPIRegexp encapsulates interaction with
      the PPI Regexp token classes.  Those classes have very sparse
      APIs, so this package hides away the ugly fiddling with PPI
      internals.
    * Added a new optional_modules parameter for the .run syntax.

    Bug fixes:
    * PPI::Structure::List can now contain multiple children,
      so P::C::Utils::parse_arg_list() needs to handle it.

      This was done in the process of fixing
      http://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=24924, which was a problem
      with TestingAndDebugging::RequireTestLabels.

    * ValuesAndExpressions::ProhibitLongChainsOfMethodCalls wasn't resetting
      chain length when it ran into the end of a sub-expression.

      http://rt.cpan.org/Public/Bug/Display.html?id=30040

    * ValuesAndExpressions::ProhibitCommaSeparatedStatements was reporting
      false positives when builtins which accept both no and multiple
      arguments were involved.

      http://rt.cpan.org/Public/Bug/Display.html?id=27654

    Internals:
    * Removed all use of Carp in favor of exceptions.

    Prerequisites:
    * Now requires PPI 1.201.  A number of workarounds for PPI bugs have been
      removed.
    * New dependency upon Exception::Class.

    Installation:
    * Use Devel::CheckOS to see whether Perl::Critic is being installed on
      a Solaris system and warn about tar(1) chopping file names off if it
      is.

[1.079_003]  Released on 2007-10-22
[1.079_002]  Released on 2007-10-21
[1.079_001]  Released on 2007-10-09

    Changes summarized into 1.080 above.  For exact details, see Changes in
    1.079_003 on BackPAN.

[1.078]  Released on 2007-09-19

    Restore Perl::Critic::TestUtils::should_skip_author_tests() and
    get_author_test_skip_message().  Some Perl::Critic add-on distributions
    are using them.

[1.077]  Released on 2007-09-15

    Note: if you don't have any problems installing Perl::Critic 1.076, there
    is no need to upgrade to this version.  There are no functionality
    changes.  This release only contains changes related to installation that
    a few people were experiencing.

    Minor changes:
    * Removed build-time use of Readonly, again, due to problems some people
      were having when trying to compile the code by hand, rather than using
      CPAN(PLUS)?.
    * Don't run author tests if there's a .svn directory present because
      users who grabbed the code from the source repository were executing
      them and getting failures.
    * Don't generate optional, module-hiding test wrappers if author tests
      are not enabled.


[1.076]  Released on 2007-09-07

    It appears from reports on the 1.075_001 release that the subroutine
    sigils were indeed the problem.  Release to the general populace.


[1.075_001]  Released on 2007-09-06

    Bug Fixes:
    Undo the changes in 1.073 and 1.074.  Instead, stop using the subroutine
    sigil in import and export lists.  It is suspected that the problem lies
    with Exporter stripping off ampersands.

[1.074]  Released on 2007-09-04

    Bug Fixes:
    Repeat the Makefile.PL change on
    t/generate_without_optional_dependencies_wrappers.PL.
    I love CPAN Testers.

[1.073]  Released on 2007-09-04

    Bug Fixes:
    Work around problems with the combination of Exporter & Readonly in
    Makefile.PL on some machines.

[1.072]  Released on 2007-09-03

    Bug Fixes:
    * The Makefile generated by Makefile.PL was not syntactically correct
      according to some versions of Solaris.  Thanks to Diab Jerius
      (DJERIUS) for discovery and testing.
    * Fixed mis-definition of "quiet" value for the "--profile-strictness"
      option.
    * Enhanced testing with the absence of optional modules.

[1.071]  Released on 2007-08-24

    The "Brown Paper Bag" Release

    Bug Fixes:
    * Tests would not pass in environments that did not have all optional
      dependencies installed.

[1.07]  Released on 2007-08-21

    New Policies: (funded by a Perl Foundation grant)
    * BuiltinFunctions::ProhibitBooleanGrep
    * BuiltinFunctions::ProhibitComplexMappings
    * Documentation::PodSpelling
    * InputOutput::ProhibitJoinedReadline
    * Subroutines::ProhibitManyArgs
    * Subroutines::RequireArgUnpacking
    * ValuesAndExpressions::ProhibitImplicitNewlines
    * Variables::RequireLocalizedPunctuationVars

    Other New Policies
    * Subroutines::ProhibitNestedSubs

    New Features:
    * The "perlcritic --profile-proto" output now includes the "add_themes"
      parameter for each policy.
    * The perlcritic "--strict-profile" option has been replaced with a
      "--profile-strictness" option.  This new option takes values of "warn"
      (the default), "fatal", and "quiet", which controls what happens with
      ignorable problems in a .perlcriticrc file.

    New Developer Features:
    * Perl::Critic::Policy now has an overridable initialize_if_enabled()
      method which allows a Policy to perform expensive initialization after
      it has been determined whether the user has it enabled or not.  Also,
      this method allows a Policy to say that it should be disabled
      regardless of what the user says.

      Actually, use of this method is now encouraged over using a
      constructor.

    Other Stuff:
    * Now requires the Readonly module in order to be more self-compliant.

[1.061]  Released on 2007-07-24

    Bug Fixes:
    * Fix P::C::Theme-- Exporter in Perl 5.6 does not export import(), so you
      must subclass it.  *sigh*
    * Fix P::C::Config::_validate_and_save_theme()-- eval of an empty string
      does not reset $@/$EVAL_ERROR in Perl 5.6.

    Big thanks to Anirvan Chatterjee for identifying and helping debug these
    issues.

[1.06]  Released on 2007-06-27

    New Features:
    * perlcritic now emits errors for all the problems it can find for the
      global options in the command-line parameters and .perlcriticrc file,
      rather than bailing on the first one it encounters.

    * perlcritic now has a "--strict-profile" option which will make warnings
      about problems in a profile fatal.

    * perlcritic now has a "--statistics-only" option which suppresses the
      display of individual violations and only shows the additional output
      produced by the "--statistics" option.

    Feature requests:
    * A value for "color" can now be specified in a .perlcriticrc.
      http://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=24877

    New Policies:
    * ValuesAndExpressions::ProhibitQuotesAsQuotelikeOperatorDelimiters
      As suggested in http://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=23290.
    * ValuesAndExpressions::ProhibitLongChainsOfMethodCalls
    * Modules::ProhibitExcessMainComplexity
      As suggested in http://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=24699

    Minor changes:
    * The perlcritic "--profile-proto" option now emits the short names for
      policies, rather than the full ones.

    * The "-profileproto" and "-singlepolicy" options have been renamed to
      "-profile-proto" and "-single-policy" in order to make the growing
      number of command-line options comprehensible.  The change of
      "singlepolicy" also affects your F<.perlcriticrc> file.

[1.053]  Released on 2007-06-02

    *DEVELOPMENT RELEASE*

    Bug Fixes:
    Fixed bug in 15_statustics.t test script, which caused the build
    to fail on machines that don't have Perl::Tidy installed.

[1.052]  Released on 2007-06-01

    *DEVELOPMENT RELEASE*

    New Features:
    * perlcritic now emits a summary about the scanned code when enabled by
      the "-statistics" option.

    Policy Enhancements:
    * InputOutput::ProhibitBacktickOperators can now be configured to only
      check in void contexts.

    Bug Fixes:
    * 27073: False positive in RequireUpperCaseHeredocTerminator
    * 27065: CodeLayout::ProhibitTrailingWhitespace breaks under Perl 5.6.1
    * 26462: ControlStructures::ProhibitCascadingIfElse pod typo
    * ValuesAndExpressions::ProhibitCommaSeparatedStatements was complaining
      about multiple values in the list to be iterated over by a foreach loop.
    * Corrected PBP page numbers for some policies (Quinn Weaver).

[1.051]  Released on 2007-04-12

    *DEVELOPMENT RELEASE*

    No new policies.
    No particular bug fixes.

    Internals:
    * Added several new utility functions to support the StricterSubs distro.
      Also, some of the existing functions in Perl-Critic-Utils have
      changed in ways that might break your custom policies.

    Miscellanea:
    * Updated Emacs plugin (Courtesy Josh ben Jore).
      See extras/perlcritic.el for details.
    * Added copy of BBEdit plugin (Courtesy of Josh Clark).
      See extras/perl_critic_for_bbedit-1_0.zip for details

[1.05]  Released on 2007-03-19

    Bug Fixes:
    * 25557: t/20_policy_prohibittrailingwhitespace.t fails on Perl 5.8.0

[1.04]  Released on 2007-03-18

    Bug Fixes:
    * 25008: Subroutines::RequireFinalReturn should allow "throw"
    * 25085: False Positive - Heredoc terminator must be quoted
    * 18423: VERSION check does not notice Readonly::Scalar version
    * 25449: Proposal of $VERSION declaration (DUPLICATE)

    New Policies:
    * CodeLayout::ProhibitTrailingWhitespace
    * ValuesAndExpressions::ProhibitCommaSeparatedStatements
    * Variables::ProhibitPerl4PackageNames

    Policy Enhancements:
    * Subroutines::RequireFinalReturn can now be configured to recognize
      your custom functions that behave like "die" or "exit".
    * Documentation::RequirePodSections can be configured to match
      Module::Starter:PBP or to really match the PBP book.

[1.03]  Released on 2007-02-13

    Bug Fixes:
    * Fixed a few more problems with the %f, %F, and %r format escapes.
    * I forgot to put Conway's perlcriticrc file in the MANIFEST. Sorry.

    Interface Changes:
    * Perl::Critic::Utils automatically exports everything.  However,
      this is deprecated.  In the future, you must request your exports.

    Policy Changes:
    * Duplicate violations of RequireExcplicitPackage are now squelched,
      in the same way as RequireUseStrict and RequireUseWarnings.

[1.02]  Released on 2007-02-11

    Bug Fixes:
    * "undef" incorrectly triggered ProhibitMutatingListFunctions.
    * 24876: %f and %F escapes not working in custom "verbose" format strings.
    * 24875: Documentation bug in TestingAndDebugging::ProhibitNoStrict

    New Policies:
    * InputOutput::RequireCheckedOpen
    * InputOutput::RequireCheckedClose

    Other Cool Stuff:
    * Added Conway's own suggested Perl::Critic configuration as
      examples/perlcriticrc-conway.

    * See the examples/ directory for some neat demonstrations of using
      the Perl::Critic API. Contributed by Elliot Shank.

    Interface Changes:
    * Perl::Critic::Utils no longer exports anything by default.  Policies
      outside the distribution will need to specify what exactly they need
      from this module.  There are a number of tags that can be used in
      addition to individual imports.

[1.01]  Released on 2007-01-24

    PRODUCTION RELEASE:  You may now consider the public Perl::Critic
    API as "stable."  Future minor releases will focus on bug fixes,
    new policies, and internal refactoring.

    Bug Fixes:
    * Fixed memory leak.  This was reported by the Parrot team at
      http://rt.perl.org/rt3/Ticket/Display.html?id=41230

[0.23]  Released on 2007-01-19

    Bug Fixes:
    * 23994: Test 56 in t/05_utils.t of Perl::Critic v0.22 fails
    * 24005: test 95 in t/13_bundled_policies fails in 0.22


    Groovy New Features:
    * Added '%F' to the Violation format specifications.  This will
      give you just the name of file where the violation occurred
      (i.e. without the path).

    * Improved validation of .perlcriticrc file.  An invalid
      default setting will now cause a fatal exception. A
      strange-looking policy name will cause a warning.


    Interface Changes:
    * The syntax for theme expressions has changed.  Instead of using
      mathematical operators qw(+ * -) you must now use the logical
      operators qw(|| && !).  See the Perl::Critic docs for more info.

    * The @GLOBALS and @BUILTINS variables are no longer exported by
      Perl::Critic::Utils.  Use the is_perl_global() and is_perl_builtin()
      functions instead.

    * Perl::Critic::Policy::policy_parameters() has bee renamed to
      Perl::Critic::Policy::supported_paramters().  This was an
      undocumented feature anyway, so it shouldn't affect anyone.


    Other Internal Changes:
    * Perl::Critic now requires B::Keywords v1.05 or newer.

    * A few internal classes have been refactored.  As a result,
      Set::Scalar is no longer a required dependency.


[0.22]  Released on 2006-12-15

    New Features:
    * Introduced named severity levels: gentle, stern, harsh, cruel, brutal
      You can use these named levels instead of the numeric ones.
      For example: "perlcritic --severity=cruel MyModule.pm"
      Or just:     "perlcritic --cruel MyModule.pm"

    * For perlcritic, the "-List" option has been renamed to
      "-profileproto".  The output now includes the names of the
      parameters that each Policy supports, if any.

    * Improved validation of Policy parameters in your F<.perlcriticrc>
      Any invalid parameter now causes a fatal exception.

    Major Changes:
    * Reassigned themes for most policies.  Now there are fewer
      themes and they are organized around programming concepts
      instead of severity levels.  If you have assigned your own
      themes to any Policies, they should still work as expected.

    Policy Changes:
    * ErrorHandling::RequireCarping will not complain if it can figure
      out that the die or warn message will always end in a newline
      ("\n").  The idea is that, if you put the newline there, you
      don't indend for there to be any file/line/stack information
      emitted, in which case you really don't want carp/croak.

      You can restore the old strict behavior by giving the policy
      a false value for "allow_messages_ending_with_newlines" in your
      configuration.

    Misc Changes:

    Added single-letter uppercase alternatives for some perlcritic options.

[0.21_01] Released on 2006-12-03

    New Policies:
    * TestingAndDebugging::ProhibitProlongedStrictureOverride
    * ControlStructures::ProhibitMutatingListFunctions

    New Features:
    * Say "perlcritic -List" to get an expanded listing of all Policies.
      The format is suitable for use as your .perlcriticrc file.
    * Say "perlcritic -doc PATTERN" to get the documentation for all
      Policies that match m/PATTERN/imx.  This is a little easier than
      typing in the full name of the Policy module with "perldoc".
    * Say "perlcritic --singlepolicy PATTERN" to use one and only one
      policy.
    * Can now specify exceptions to Variables::ProhibitPackageVars,
      for packages like File::Find that only interface through
      package variables.

    Bug Fixes:
    * 21713 false positive for parens used with substr and unpack.
    * 22890 allow Rcs keywords in POD.

    Internals:
    * Testing system overhauled.  Details on the Policy/subtest
      framework is in t/run.t.
    * Added Perl::Critic::Utils::words_from_string.  This is safer
      than plain old C<split /\s+/>.

[0.21]  Released on 2006-11-05

    New Policies:
    * BuiltinFunctions::ProhibitReverseSortBlock
    * BuiltinFunctions::ProhibitVoidGrep
    * BuiltinFunctions::ProhibitVoidMap
    * CodeLayout::RequireConsistentNewlines
    * Modules::RequireFilenameMatchesPackage
    * TestingAndDebugging::RequireTestLabels
    * ValuesAndExpressions::ProhibitMismatchedOperators

    New Features:
    * Introduced policy "themes."  Themes are arbitrary names that can
      be used to identify a group of related Policies.  You can select
      your favorite policies by combining themes in a mathematic expression
      such as "pbp * (danger + risky)".  See POD for details.
    * perlcritic output is colorized if you have Term::ANSIColor.  This
      only works on non-Win32 platforms.  Use -nocolor switch to disable.
    * Say "perlcritic -count" to get just the the total number of
      violations per file.  Use this feature to quickly identify hot-spots.
    * Use the -only switch to choose only from policies mentioned in your
      .perlcriticrc file.  This is useful if you usually only want to
      work with a small subset of the policies.
    * Default values for most of the perlcritic and Perl::Critic options
      can now be defined in your .perlcriticrc file.  See POD for details.

    Bug Fixes:
    * 21236: wrong page number for "printing to filehandles"
    * 21916: File handle ... wrong page reference in PBP [DUPE]
    * 21714: false positive for capture var used in ternary condition
    * 21718: No skip for File::Slurp in includes.t
    * ProhibitBarewordFilehandles doesn't complain if you open
      STDIN, STDOUT or STDERR.
    * Parrot 40564: Subroutines::RequireFinalReturn should allow die,
      exit, etc.
    * Each "for" and "foreach" loop now adds one point to the McCabe
      complexity score.

    Other Stuff:
    * The internals of Perl::Critic have been significantly refactored,
      but should still be compatible with existing third-party Policies.
    * Added author-only tests to the release, but disabled by default
    * New Perl::Critic::Utils::shebang_line() method
    * Support for filename-based policies
    * Additional prerequisite: Set::Scalar
    * Now requires PPI version 1.118

[0.20]  Released on 2006-09-10

    Perl::Critic now requires PPI version 1.117, which fixes
    several bugs that were introduced in version 1.116.

    Bug Fixes:
    * 21079: grep clears @SITE_POLICIES
    * 21352: Test failures with PPI 1.117
    * 11365: sub DESTROY detected as a builtin homonym

[0.19]  Released on 2006-08-20

    New Policies:
    * BuiltinFunctions::ProhibitStringySplit
    * ControlStructures::ProhibitDeepNests
    * RegularExpressions::ProhibitCaptureWithoutTest
    * Variables::RequireLexicalLoopIterator

    New Features:
    * "perlcritic -quiet" suppresses the "source OK" message.
    * Variables::ProhibitPunctuationVars is now configurable.

    Bug Fixes:
    * 20965: "Hard tabs used at" shouldn't check __DATA__
    * 21070: ProhibitNoisyQuotes hates overload
    * Punctuation variables are now exempt from ProhibitLocalVars

    Other Stuff:
    * Test coverage is now over 95%

[0.18_01]  Released on 2006-08-06

    New Policies:
    * Variables::RequireNegativeIndices
    * InputOutput::ProhibitInteractiveTest
    * ErrorHandling::RequireCarping

    Bug Fixes:
    * RequireTidyCode tests fail if user has custom .perltidyrc file
    * 20612: RequirePerlTidy was ignoring HEREDOCs
    * 20659: __END__ statement considered "unreachable"
    * Fix for PPI::XS (no C<use overload '""'> support)
    * Support for 'goto' in ProhibitAmpersandSigils and
      Subroutines::RequireFinalReturn

    Performance Enhancements:
    * Introduced Perl::Critic::Document class.  This is a facade for
      PPI::Document which internally caches search results.  This
      reduces the running time by about 35%.  The facade should be
      invisible, unless you are doing something really sneaky.
    * Extraction of the 'diagnostics' information is postponed
      until it is really needed.  Speedup has not been measured.
    * Calls to helper-subs have been reordered for maximum efficiency.

    Other Cool Stuff:
    * Includes updated version of perlcritic mode for emacs.  See
      "extras/perlcritic.el" for details.

[0.18]  Released on 2006-07-16

    Bug Fixes:
    * 14855: Home discovery is dangerously naive.
    * 20060: Incorrect page numbers in ProhibitLeadingZeros
      and RequireNumberSeparator policies.
    * 20068: .perlrc file - inconsistent documentation
    * 20254: "use vars qw(@EXPORT_OK)" not recognized
    * 20463: No-case heredoc terminator incorrectly detected as lower case.
    * ProhibitOneArgBless doesn't understand "bless {} => $class;"
    * ProhibitExcessComplexity doesn't count 'while' and 'until' stmnts
    * ProhibitLeadingZeros was falsely hits '.0456'

    Enhancements:
    * If File::HomeDir is available, we use it to locate the
      .perlcriticrc file.  This should help make Perl::Critic
      more portable to Win32 platforms.  If File::HomeDir is
      not installed, we resort to looking at the usual
      environment variables.

    Other Stuff:
    * Added "perlcritic.el", which is a super-cool emacs minor-mode
      that runs perl-critic on the current buffer and returns the
      results in a sexy hot-linked "compiler" window.  You can run
      it on demand, or have it run automatically every time you
      save the buffer.  You can find this in the extras/ directory.
      Thanks to Josh ben Jore for contributing this.

    * Moved "Perl::Critic::TestUtils" into the installed build.  This
      module is only used for unit-testing Perl::Critic, but we
      are putting it in the installation so folks who want to
      extend Perl::Critic can make use of it.

[0.17]  Released on 2006-06-13

    Bug Fixes:
    * 19836: Perl-Critic0.16 fails tests during install.  This was
      caused by a bug in version 3.01 of Module::Pluggable.  See
      http://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=19857 for details.
    * Fixed bug in no-critic pragma parser.

    New Policies:
    * ValuesAndExpressions::ProhibitEscapedCharacters
    * BuiltinFunctions::RequireSimpleSortBlock

    Enhancements:
    * Perl::Critic can export critique() as a static function.  This
      may appeal to folks who dislike the object-oriented interface.

[0.16]  Released on 2006-05-14

    Enhancements:
    * Perl::Critic->critique() now accepts a PPI::Document as the
      argument.  This feature creates an additional dependency on
      Scalar::Util, but that shouldn't be a problem because it is
      included with List::Util, which we already use.

    Miscellanea:
    * Increased PPI dependency from v1.110 to v1.112

[0.15_03] Released on 2006-05-07

    Bug Fixes:
    * The "## no critic" feature is now implemented without eval-ing
      the code.  This keeps Perl::Critic pure and safe :)
    * 19082: Page number for AUTOLOAD is incorrect

    New Policies:
    * ControlStructures::ProhibitUnreachableCode (by Peter Guzis)
    * Modules::ProhibitAutomaticExportation
    * ValuesAndExpressions::ProhibitVersionStrings

[0.15_02] Released on 2006-04-26

    Bug Fixes:
    * Reimplemented the '##no critic' pragmas to have effect on the
      line where the violation is reported, not on the line where
      the candidate element lives.  This is because some policies
      may report violations that are nowhere near the element that
      is being evaluated.
    * RequireUseStrict, RequireUseWarnings, and RequireExplcitPackage
      all emit violations for _every_ statement that violates the
      Policy.  This closes a loophole that allowed you to circumvent
      the Policy by using '## no critic' on just the first statement
      that violated the policy.
    * Fixed the workaround for the magic shebang that is inserted
      by EU::MM and M::B.  This had stopped working around version 13.
    * Fixed -noprofile option on 'perlcritic'.  This also had stopped
      working at some point.

[0.15_01] Released on 2006-04-16

    Enhancements:
    * Added diagnostic messages if the .perlcriticrc contains entries
      for Policy modules that don't seem to exist.
    * Now you can specify which policies to disable with the
      "## no critic" pseudo-pragmas.  This feature is still
      experimental.  See docs for details.
    * perlcritic's directory searching now skips backup files, such
      as *.swp, *.bak and *~.  It also ignores version control system
      directories, and the blib directory in module build directories.

    Bug Fixes:
    * 18386: Bad example in POD for Documentation::RequirePodSections
    * 18670: Test failure if Perl::Tidy is not installed
    * 18698: Policy idea ProhibitUniversalFunctions (see New Policies)
    * RequireInterpolationOfMetachars falsely hit strings like 'foo=s@'
      which are commonly used with Getopt::Long.

    New Policies:
    * BuiltinFunctions::ProhibitUniversalCan (by Chris Dolan)
    * BuiltinFunctions::ProhibitUniversalIsa (by Chris Dolan)

    Miscellanea:
    * All spurrious options for `perlcritic` are now fatal.
    * Changed several of the -verbose formats to be more readable.
    * Explicit -severity option now overrides -[12345] shortcuts instead
      of being the other way around.



[0.15] Released on 2006-03-26

    Bug Fixes:
    * 17964: Insists my code is not tidy (may not be fixed for all cases)

[0.14_02] Released on 2006-03-19

    Bug Fixes:
    * 15653: False positive in OneArgSelect (fixed for real this time)

    New Policies:
    * ClassHierarchies::ProhibitAutoloading
    * Documentation::RequirePodSections
    * InputOutput::RequireBracedFileHandleWithPrint
    * ValuesAndExpressions::ProhibitMixedBooleanOperators
    * Variables::RequireInitializationForLocalVars

[0.14_01] Released on 2006-03-05

    Bug Fixes:
    * 14731: False positive: Builtin function called with parens
    * 17554: False positive in CodeLayout::RequireTrailingCommas

    New Policies:
    * ClassHierarchies::ProhibitExplicitISA
    * InputOutput::ProhibitReadlineInForLoop
    * Miscellanea::ProhibitFormats
    * Miscellanea::ProhibitTies
    * Variables::ProhibitConditionalDeclarations

[0.14] Released on 2006-01-29

    More documentation edits.

    New Policies:
    * Documentation::RequirePodAtEnd
    * Subroutines::ProtectPrivateSubs
    * Variables::ProhibitMatchVars
    * Variables::ProtectPrivateVars

    Bug Fixes:
    * 15295: "## no critic" pragmas too aggresive on compound statements.
    * t/01_config.t failed in the presence of third-party policies

[0.13_05] Not released

    More documentation edits.

    Implemented workaround for failing pod_coverage tests.

    Bug Fixes:
    * 16906:  tr/// created false-postives with RegularExpression polices.

[0.13_04] Released on 2005-12-31

    Moved DEVELOPER.pod file into the Perl/Critic dir.

    More documentation edits.

[0.13_03] Released on 20051230

    perlcritic now prints 'source OK' if it doesn't find any
    violations.  This gives folks a warm fuzzy feeling.

    Tweaked some test cases that were failing on my Solaris
    environment at work.

[0.13_02] Released on 2005-12-29

    Fixed Config to recognize fully-qualified module names in the
    .perlcriticrc file.

    Various documentation edits.

[0.13_01] Released on 2005-12-28

    Replaced 'priority' concept with 'severity'.  Now each Policy module
    has a predefined severity level ranging from 1 to 5.  By default,
    perlcritic only reports the most severe violations.  You can adjust
    the severity threshold at the command line, and you can change
    the severity for any Policy using the config file.

    Chris implemented the applies_to() mechanism, which allows each Policy
    class to declare the types of PPI elements that it wants to examine.
    When traversing the document, Perl::Critic invokes the Policy only
    for elements that are of the correct type.  This improves performance
    by about 33%.

    Perl::Critic now uses a Plugin architecture to automatically
    discover Policy modules.  So if you have custom Policies, all you
    have to do is install them in the Perl::Critic::Policy namespace --
    no need to add anything to your .perlcriticrc file.  If you write
    policies in a different namespace, you can configure that too.  See
    the Perl::Critic::Config docs for details.

    New Policies:
    * Modules::RequireEndWithOne
    * NamingConventions::ProhibitAmbiguousNames
    * References::ProhibitDoubleSigils
    * Subroutines::RequireFinalReturn
    * Subroutines::ProhibitAmpersandSigils
    * Subroutines::ProhibitExcessComplexity
    * TestingAndDebugging::ProhibitNoStrict
    * TestingAndDebugging::ProhibitNoWarnings

    Bug Fixes:
    * 15101: Plugin architecture improves support for 3rd-party code
    * 16319: Fixed incorrect PBP page number in ProhibitBarwordFilehandle
    * 16321: Lists of empty quotes are now allowed by ProhibitQuotedWordLists
    * 16288: Empty lists caused a fatal error RequireTrailingCommas
    * 15653: Fixed false positive in OneArgSelect.

[0.13] Released on 2005-10-31

    Official release of 0.12_03.  No code major changes.

[0.12_03] Not released

    Renamed -Policy option to -include.  Added -exclude to give the
    opposite effect.

    Refactored constructor of Perl::Critic.  Now, most of the work
    is delegated to Perl::Critic::Config.  I'm not sure I like how
    this turned out, but we'll see how it goes.

    Renamed some Policy modules to be a bit more comprehensible.  Note
    that you may need to change your .perlcriticrc file accordingly.
    I also suggest removing your current Perl::Critic installation
    before installing this one.

    Name Changes:
    * ProhibitUnpackagedCode => RequireExplicitPackage
    * RequireQuotedWords     => ProhibitQuotedWordLists

    Improved error message when Perl::Critic dies because PPI can't
    parsee the input code.

    Changed output of -help to be more terse.

    Edited POD.

[0.12_02] Not released

    Added -Policy option to perlcritic.  The idea is to provide a
    compact interface for selecting Policy modules at the command-line.
    This feature is experimental and subject to change.

    Added a warning message if -verbose value looks strange.  In most
    applications, the -verbose option does not require a value, so people
    might be puzzled when they write 'perlcritic -verbose my_file.pm' and
    nothing seems to happen.

    Command-line options to perlcritic are now case-sensitive.  This
    makes it easier to abbreviate options that start with the same letters
    (e.g. 'Version' and 'verbose')

    Fixed the new Policy modules that were misnamed and misplaced in the
    previous distribution.

[0.12_01] Not released

    Rewrote some of the ControlStructures and BuiltinFunction
    policies to be simpler (and probably a little faster).

    Edited POD.  Fixed some typos.  Added PREREQUISITES section
    to Perl::Critic documentation.

    Fixed the -verbose FORMAT option so that you can put metachars
    in the FORMAT specification.  If using perlcritic, be careful to
    protect them from getting munged by the shell first.

    Replaced ProhibitRequireStatements with RequireBarewordIncludes
    module. Courtesy of Chris Dolan <cdolan@cpan.org>

    Added configuration to ProhibitInterpolationOfLiterals so that
    certain flavors of quotes can be exempt.  This is for folks who
    have configured their editor to use special syntax highlighting
    for certain kinds of strings (SQL, for example).

    perlcritic now accepts multiple file arguments, so now you can
    critique your entire distribution in one shot.  As a result, the
    output-formats have changed slightly.

    New Policy modules:
    * BuiltinFunctions::ProhibitLvalueSubstr
    * BuiltinFunctions::ProhibitSleepViaSelect
    * ClassHierarchies::ProhibitOneArgBless
    * CodeLayout::RequireTrailingCommas
    * CodeLayout::RequireQuotedWordLists
    * InputOutput::ProhibitTwoArgOpen
    * InputOutput::ProhibitOneArgSelect
    * InputOutput::ProhibitBarewordFileHandles
    * Miscellanea::RequireRcsKeywords
    * Modules::RequireVersionVar
    * RegularExpressions::RequireExtendedFormatting
    * RegularExpressions::RequireLineBoundaryMatching


    Bug fixes:
    14923: 'require' is now permitted. See RequireBarewordIncludes.
    15022: Fixed false-positives when keywords are used as hash keys.
    15023: Fixed spurious Violations by removing magic shebang.
    15031: Fixed spelling mistakes (and probably added some new ones).
    15233: Postfix 'if' is now allowed with 'die', 'croak', etc.

[0.12] Released 2005-10-10

    Redesigned the 'verbose' feature.  Now the output format
    can be user-defined using a sprintf-like specification.
    perlciritc also has a predefined output format that is
    compatible with grep mode in editors like vim and emacs.

    'return' is now exempt from ProhibitParensWithBuiltins.  I may
    extend this exemption to all unary functions.

    Edited POD. Added a super brief description of each policy
    in the main Perl::Critic documentation.  Added details about
    editor integration.

    Additional Prerequisites:
    * String::Format

[0.11] Not released

    The internal dynamics and API of Perl::Critic have changed
    considerably.  The result is a 300% increase in performance.
    See the POD in Perl::Critic::Policy for details.

    New Features:
    * Added -verbose option to put more stuff in the output.  In the
      extreme, you can get the POD from Policy attached to each
      and every violation.

    Additional Prerequisites:
    * IO::String
    * Pod::PlainText

[0.10] Released 2005-10-05

    Fixed stupid bug in newest Policy modules.  They were returning
    PPI objects instead of Perl::Critic::Violation objects.  Doh!

    Fixed test scripts to prevent failures if the user already has a
    .perlcriticrc file.

    'ProhibitHardTabs' now allows leading tabs by default.

    Put the Changes file in reverse-chronological order, so the most
    recent stuff is easy to find at the top of the file

[0.09] Released 2005-10-04

    Fixed several bugs:
    * 14810: Now you are allowed to create your own 'import' function,
             since this is frequently done with fancy modules.
    * 14817: Parens, brackets, and braces are now excluded from
             'ProhibitNoisyQuotes' since they look better in quotes anyway.
    * 14787: $1..$9 and '_' are exempt from ProhibitPunctuationVars
    * 14899: Object methods with the same name as a built-in can
             be called with parens (ProhibitParensWithBuiltins).
    * 14901: Normalized the exit status of perlcritic to 0, 1, or 2.
             See documentation for explanation.
    * 14855: Partially fixed home directory discovery.  Still not
             completely portable, but at least doesn't create warnings.

    New features:
    * 14734: Limit for number separators is now configurable

    New Policy modules:
    * CodeLayout::ProhibitHardTabs
    * ControlStructures::ProhibitUnlessBlocks
    * ControlStructures::ProhibitUntilBlocks
    * ControlStructures::ProhibitCStyleForLoops

    Changed the syntax for the magic comments.  Adam had the
    idea of using a pragma-like notation.  I liked it.

[0.08_2] Released 2005-09-27

    Fixed problems with Perl::Critic::Config that caused File::Spec
    to emit 'uninitialized value' warnings during the build.

    Added 1 Policy module contributed by Graham TerMarsch

    Switched from File::Spec::Functions to plain File::Spec because
    I think its usage is more common.

    Removed 'FindBin' from the test files so I can be sure that the
    right libraries are getting loaded.  This means I'll have to
    use the -l option with C<prove>.

    Edited more POD.

[0.08_01] Not released

    Fixed "ProhibitParensWithBuiltins" to allow parens to be used with
    object method calls that have the same name as a builtin functions.

    Introduced magical comments that allow developers to configure
    Perl::Critic on-the-fly from within their code.

    Added META.yml files and POD tests to the build.  I did this
    mostly just to boost the Kwalitee score on CPANTS.

    Switched from "Config::Std" to "Config::Tiny" because it doesn't
    require those fancy Damian modules that don't seem to work on
    some older versions of Perl.

[0.07] Released on 2005-09-21

    Fixed bugs in the ProhibitCascadingIfElse policy.

    Added ProhibitExplicitReturnUndef policy

    Made ProhibitUnpackagedCode configurable so you can exempt scripts,
    which typically don't have an explicit 'package' statement.

    ProhibitPackageVars policy now exempts vars in ALL_CAPS.  This
    is to permit common package variables like @EXPORT and $VERSION.

    Renamed "ProhibitStringyGrep and "ProhibitStringyMap" because
    the so-called string form doesn't really exist.  Now called
    "RequireBlockGrep" and "RequireBlockMap"

    Corrected documentation on defining Policy names within the
    configuration file.  This still isn't very clear and needs
    to be rewritten.

    Perl::Critic now requires PPI version 1.003, which has a few bug
    fixes of its own.

    Rewrite some code just to make Perl::Critic more self-compliant.

    Added test cases to verify the configuration functionality.  These
    are not completely thorough and need more work.

[0.06] Released on 2005-09-17

    Now called 'Perl::Critic'.

    Added 4 new policy modules.

    Fixed bugs in build process.

    Added support for Module::Build.

[0.05] Released on 2005-09-17

    End of 'Perl::Review' releases.  I have changed the name to
    'Perl::Critic' to avoid possible confusion with "The Perl Review"
    magazine.

[0.04] Released on 2005-09-14

    Version 0.03 was a bust because I uploaded the wrong tarball to PAUSE.

[0.03] Released on 2005-09-13.

    Fixed some POD links.

    Removed test cases for missing policy module.

[0.02] Released on 2005-09-13.

    Major overhaul based on feedback from Perl community.

    Factored coding standards into separate modules (known as
    Policies).  The idea here is to allow other developers to easily
    contribute additional coding standards.

    Reworked Perl::Review into a simple engine for loading and running
    Policy modules.

    Gave perlreview a command-line interface and configuration file
    for selecting which Policy modules to use.

[0.01] Released on 2005-08-16.

    Initial version.
