0.62    2022-03-01
        [CHANGES]
         * Add "common" methods:
            + Implement `:common` attribute for methods
            + Take 'common' argument to `$metaclass->add_method`
            + Added `$metamethod->is_common` accessor
         * Don't require a terminating semicolon after `has $field { EXPR }`

        [BUGFIXES]
         * Better handling of role method embeddings that include lexical
           captures (RT141483)

0.61    2022-02-16
        [CHANGES]
         * Added Object::Pad::MOP::Class->create_{class,role}
         * Added $metaclass->seal (RT141294)
         * Added $metaclass->add_required_method and ->required_method_names
           (RT141314)
         * Accept bodyless `method NAME;` declarations to declare a required
           role method

         * Assert when compclassmeta->name doesn't match PL_curstname (RT141293)

0.60    2022-02-01
        [CHANGES]
         * The Great Slot/Field Rename:
            + "slot" is now called "field"; all perl-visible and XS API has
              been renamed. Various back-compatibility redirections exist for
              most of the parts used by other distributions.
         * Print a deprecation warning on the legacy 'implements' and
           'extends' keywords
         * No longer supports the hooks API from pre-v57
         * Perform unit testing using Data::Dumper instead of Data::Dump to
           reduce non-core test_requires dependencies

0.59    2021-12-15
        [CHANGES]
         * Support lexical methods, stored in lexical variables

        [BUGFIXES]

           blocks (RT140314)
         * Docs updates to improve searchability (RT140141)
         * Don't fiddle with PL_curcop on non-DEBUGGING builds to avoid
           disturbing caller() output (RT139408)

0.58    2021-11-25
        [CHANGES]
         * Trim whitespace within :attribute values (RT140109)

        [BUGFIXES]
         * Early seal on outer class when deriving an inner subclass of it
         * Store the real slotix in fasthook cache, not its index within the
           direct_slots AV

            + Adds MOP accessor functions for slotmeta default SV
         * Added :isa() and :does() class attributes; encourage those rather
           than the older keyword style
         * Added more MOP methods:
            + $classmeta->direct_methods, ->get_direct_method
            + $classmeta->all_methods, ->get_method
            + $slotmeta->has_attribute, ->get_attribute_value

         * Add some more MOP methods:
            + $classmeta->direct_roles
            + $classmeta->all_roles
            + $slotmeta->sigil

        [BUGFIXES]
         * Fix an uninitialised memory warning from valgrind to do with class
           creation
