  • Bug fix release for upcoming Perl 5.16.0

  • Clarified Acme::EyeDrops license (thanks Jotam Jr. Trejo) LICENSE and README were inconsistent with META.yml all should be consistent now
  • minor code improvements for perl 5.6+ requirement: added "use warnings" to EyeDrops.pm use lexical file handles now can use readline() function now
  • documentation: removed "A Slow Day" section
  • documentation: added new "Victoria Bra, Secret Tango" section
  • new shape: bra
  • new shape: spider
  • 01_mug.t: fixed rt #72163: perl -Mstrict -e 'open$[' 'Can't use string ("0") as a symbol ref while "strict refs" in use' This seems to be a long-standing perl bug fixed in 5.16 Fixed test simply by removing -Mstrict in 01_mug.t
  • 16_astride.t: threads test, adjusted to avoid annoying "Tests out of sequence" failure reports from CPAN testers
