  Like the XSLTCache, it uses MLDBM::Sync::SDBM_File
  by default, but can use DB_File or GDBM_File if
  CacheDB is set to these.

  See t/cache.t for API support until this is documented.

 +CacheSize now supports units of M, K, B like 

   CacheSize 10M
   CacheSize 10240K
   CacheSize 10000000B
   CacheSize 10000000

 -Better handling of $Session->Abandon() so multiple
  request to the same session while its being destroyed
  will have the right effect.

 +Optimized XMLSubs parsing.  Scripts with lots lof XMLSubs 
  now parse faster for the first time.  One test script with 
  almost 200 such tags went from a parse time of around 3 seconds
  to .7 seconds after optimizations.

 +Updated performance tuning docs, particularly for using
  Apache::ASP->Loader()

 +$Server->URL($url, \%params) now handles array refs
  in the params values like
    $Server->URL($url, { key => [ qw( value1 value2 ) ] })

  This is so that query string data found in 
  $Request->QueryString that gets parsed into this form
  from a string like: ?key=value&key=value2 would be 
  able to be reused passed back to $Server->URL to 
  create self referencing URLs more easily.

 -Bug fix where XMLSubs like <s:td /> now works on perl 
  5.005xx, thanks to Philip Mak for reporting & fix.

 +When searching for included files, will now join
  the absolute path of the directory of the script
  with the name of the file if its a relative file
  name like ./header.inc.  Before, would just look
  for something like ././header.inc by using '.'
  as the first directory to look for includes in.

  The result of this is that scripts in two directories
  configured with the same Global setting should be able
  to have separate local header.inc files without causing
  a cached namespace collision.

 +$Server->Config() call will return a hash ref 
  to all the config setting for that request, like
  Apache->dir_config would.

 -StatINC setting with Apache::ASP->Loader() works again.
  This makes StatINC & StatINCMatch settings viable 
  for production & development use when the system has
  very many modules.

 -Cookieless session support with configs like SessionQueryParse
  and SessionQuery now work for URLs with frags in them
  like http://localhost?arg=value#frag

 +@rv = $Response->Include() now works where there are
  multiple return values from an include like:
  <% return(1,2); %>

=item $VERSION = 2.21; $DATE="8/5/2001";

 +Documented RequestParams config in CONFIG misc section.

 +Documented new XSLT caching directives.

 +Updated ./site/eg/.htaccess XSLT example config
  to use XSLTCache setting.

 +New FAQ section on why perl variables are sticky globals,
  suggested by Mark Seger.

 -push Global directory onto @INC during ASP script execution
  Protect contents of original @INC with local.  This makes
  things compatible with .09 Apache::ASP where we always had
  Global in @INC.  Fixed needed by Henrik Tougaard

 - ; is a valid separator like & for QueryString Parameters
  Fixed wanted by Anders

 -XSMLSubsMatch doc fix in CONFIG section

 +Reduces number of Session groups to 16 from 32, so 
  session manager for small user sets will be that much faster.

 +optimizations for internal database, $Application, and $Session
  creation.

 +XSLTCache must be set for XSLT caching to begin using CacheDir

 +CacheDB like StateDB bug sets dbm format for caching, which
  defaults to MLDBM::Sync::SDBM_File, which works well for caching
  output sizes < 50K

 +CacheDir config for XSLT caching ... defaults to StateDir

 +CacheSize in bytes determines whether the caches in CacheDir
  are deleted at the end of the request.  A cache will be 
  reset in this way back to 0 bytes. Defaults to 10000000 bytes
  or about 10M.

 +Caching infrastructure work that is being used in XSLT
  can be leveraged later for output caching of includes,
  or arbitrary user caching.

 -t/server_mail.t test now uses valid email for testing
  purposes ... doesn't actually send a mail, but for SMTP
  runtime validation purposes it should be OK.

 +fixed where POST data was read from under MOD_PERL,
  harmless bug this was that just generated the wrong
  system debugging message.
