[V 1.13]
Date=2013-05-27T15:57:00
Comments= <<EOT
- Replace /usr/bin/perl with /usr/bin/env perl.
- Replace common::sense with use strict and use warnings, to get uninit var warnings.
- Rename test files from \d\d-*.t to *.t.
- Clean up the POD so it passes tests. Specifically, '=item 1' becomes '=item o 1', and all other '=item'
tokens are replaced by '=item o' to match.

EOT

[V 1.09]
Date=2008-05-15T11:11:00
Comments= <<EOT
- Delete V 1.08 from CPAN and upload V 1.09, hoping CPAN will index it properly this time.
All this because some uses have logged a ticket (RT#35515) about not being able
to use 'cpan' to install the module. They are right, I can't get 'cpan' to work either
- Start shipping Changelog.ini
EOT

[V 1.08]
Date=2006-06-12T11:32:00
Comments= <<EOT
- Version 1.07 was never uploaded to CPAN. It was just available from my site, and was meant
for testing the proposed callback mechanism in CGI::Session::find. That mechanism was
changed before CGI::Session 4.14 was released, so my module's code now changes to match.
Also, since CGI::Session has been patched so its sub find() no longer updates the session's
access time, my module now uses atime instead of ctime when checking for expiry
EOT

[V 1.07]
Date=2006-04-12T14:36:00
Comments= <<EOT
- Add method expire_sessions() which uses CGI::Session V 4 method find() to find all sessions,
and then expires sessions if appropriate. All this without evaling the contents of the session
and which therefore resolves RT bug 16069
- Document the new method and the new parameters to new()
- Add test t/03-delete-via-find.t to test the new code
- Add examples/expire-set.pl to demonstrate and document further ways of using the new method
- Make CGI::Session V 4.13 a prerequisite
EOT

[V 1.06]
Date=2006-04-04T10:04:00
Comments= <<EOT
- Add binmode after open in sub expire_file_sessions
- Change "eval $session[0]" into "eval join('', @session)" to handle session data containing \n
- Add a new test, t/new-line.t, to test session data containing \n
- The problem with session data containing \n characters was reported via RT by m-uchino at yetipapa.com
EOT

[V 1.05]
Date=2005-10-26T11:25:00
Comments= <<EOT
- Untaint the data read in from the sessions table before eval-ing it.
The problem, reported (with a code patch) by Dr RA Jones, was that
the original code triggered an insecure dependency warning when running
under -T, but only when using DBD::PgPP under MS Windows.
The exact reason for this warning in this situation remains a mystery
- Simplify code in new() to no longer check if caller is an object
as per the new standard on such matters
EOT

[V 1.04]
Date=2004-11-02T15:20:00
Deploy.Action=Upgrade
Deploy.Reason=Security
Comments= <<EOT
- Note: All files referred to here match the CGI::Session file name format /cgisess_[0-9a-f]{32}/
- Fix the assumption in sub expire_file_sessions() that the program was being run in the temp directory,
by adding the temp directory's name as a prefix to all file names.
Original patch: Matthias Blising
- Fix sub expire_file_sessions() to delete files of size <= 5 bytes which are old enough. Files of size 0
are sometimes created by CGI::Session under unknown circumstances.
As always, use new(delta => 123) to change the definition of 'old enough'
- Fix verbose message for file session where it should have referred to $$D{'_SESSION_ID'}
and not $$D{'id'}. The latter was a careless copy-and-paste from the database code
- Ignore recent files whose size is <= 5 bytes
- Change text of verbose messages from 'Time lapsed' to 'Time elapsed'
- Add a security warning to the POD. Actually this comment is redundant, because you always read the POD,
right?
