- Bug fix release for Perl 5.8.1 (see Perl bug #23143).
- For the first time, the EyeDrops test suite uncovered a Perl bug
(dance a little jig): recur.t, test 4 failed on Perl 5.8.1-RC2
with the error: panic: pad_free curpad. Thanks merlyn for reporting.
Since this bug won't be fixed for 5.8.1, we workaround
it by never using $_ as a filler variable

- new shapes: alpaca, bighorn, map_italy

which were mistakenly added to version 1.41 (these are not really
necessary and change module state, which is a Bad Thing)

- tests: merged old 13_to.t, old 12_Beer.t to new 19_surrounds.t
new Test::Pod test, 18_sky.t
11_bold.t now tested in taint mode (no banner test)
12_Beer.t now banner test only (not taint safe)
1.44 Sun Apr 25 19:07:41 2004
- Bug fix release for Perl 5.8.4: some of the tests broke because
they were naughtily exploiting a Perl bug re use strict inside
(?{...}) constructions in regexps (see 01_mug.t/05_Parrot.t)
- new shapes: map_world1, map_world2, map_world3, map_japan, map_uk

- new shape: halloween (thanks TheEnigma)
- new shape: koaladile (thanks Schwern)

- tests: added new test to 05_Parrot.t
- Build.PL: simplified for Module::Build 0.26 and above
- Temporarily renamed Build.PL to xBuild.PL to stop CPAN tester
robots from using Build.PL (got a lot of unexplained failures
with v1.46, yet they worked fine when installed manually)
1.50 Sat August 6 23:08:42 2005
- First attempt at "shape properties" -- note that these
are experimental and subject to change in future releases

- Yay, the EyeDrops test suite uncovers another perl bug. :-)
02_shatters.t (tests 2-4) and 09_Gallop.t (tests 3-6)
both failed on Perl 5.10.0 with "Out of memory!".
Workaround for now by commenting out these tests.
Need to investigate further and perlbug to P5P.
- new shape: jon_oxer (thanks pjf)
- fixed META.yml to comply with its latest spec (1.3) at
http://module-build.sourceforge.net/META-spec-current.html
1.53 Wed July 16 18:17:16 2008
- new shape: debian (thanks Richard Hartmann)
- new shape property keyword: debian
- CPAN testers report occasional failures in test 01_mug
on Perl 5.10.0 with "Out of memory!". Don't know why.
Requires further investigation. Meanwhile, I'll try commenting
out parts of this test and see if the failures disappear.
1.54 Sun August 31 21:19:04 2008
- new shape: opera (thanks Cosimo)
- new shape: kangaroo

1.60 Sat May 12 23:59:42 2012
- Bug fix release for upcoming Perl 5.16.0
- Dropped support for Perl 5.005; A::E now requires Perl 5.6 or higher
- 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
