[HEY, JAMESBOND IS NOT NEW! IT WAS ADDED IN VERSION 0.07!!]
- You know the story, now... (If not, see the change log for
versions 0.26, 0.38 and 0.55.) This time I turned a simple
list into one with categories.
[ENHANCEMENTS]
- The meta script can now be called with "meta theme/category"

[ANNOUNCE]
- From now on, releases should happen on a weekly
basis, every monday morning (CET)... A new list every week!
- Email me with suggestions (and lists).
[STUPID ME]
- 0.04 was released too soon, so this version:
+ puts the coverage back at 100% (one missing test in 0.04
had the coverage fall to 97.8%. Darn.)
+ removes the compromising "log" file (which was there since 0.01)
+ removes the "Build" file (which was there since 0.01, as well)
[TOOLS]
- script/meta is a simple front-end, useful with $EDITOR
[THEMES]
- New theme:
+ browser (with a little help from Sébastien Aperghis-Tramoni)
0.04 2005-01-15 BOOK
- Correct a typo in Markefile.PL (thanks to Mike Castle)
- The method themes() returns the sorted list of available themes

lib/Acme/MetaSyntactic/contributors.pm view on Meta::CPAN
=head1 DESCRIPTION
The following people contributed to L<Acme::MetaSyntactic>,
either by proposing theme ideas, updating existing themes,
sending bug reports, running the test suite on their machine
and sending me the report or sending complete lists of items
for new or existing themes. Thanks for all the work I didn't
have to do!
They are listed below in chronological order (of when I actually used
their contributions), with the list of themes they contributed to (by
sending theme ideas, code, patches, bug reports, etc.). When no theme is
listed, this means that person contributed in another way (bug reports
or contribution to the behaviour modules).
This list only includes contributions made to Acme-MetaSyntactic (from
version 0.01 up to version 0.99) and to Acme-MetaSyntactic-Themes (from
version 1.000 up to version 1.028).
