0.840_01 Tue Dec 21 2004

Summary

• Perl Foundation Funding Commences
• Changes separated into General and Details from here on
• Complete re-organisation of the quote-like token classes. Any and all code that works with quotes will be broken.
• Gave up on the old PPI::Query code and wrote a complete new and much thinner implementation based roughly on the API of File::Find::Rule. PPI::Find uses the &wanted function (which also has a slightly different API to the old one) but has the ->in style search methods. It should be relatively easy for someone to write PPI::Find::Rule on top of it.
• PPI::Transform is thus temporarily stale
