Changes for version 0.25 - 2007-02-15

  • Increased Test::Files build requires version number to 0.13 in Build.PL. Without that some tests fail for lack of file_filter_ok.
  • Made the bigtop test's file test stripper more aggressive. It now eats author lines since they are rarely the same. (Are you Phil Crow?)
  • Updated lots of docs.
  • Changed generated root path to html:html/templates to facilitate use of Gantry's Static plugin with generated stand alone servers.
