The Perl Toolchain Summit needs more sponsors. If your company depends on Perl, please support this very important event.

Changes for version 0.10012 - 2009-06-06

  • Add Catalyst::Authentication::Credential::Remote which authenticates you directly from environment variables passed by your web server. This allows the use of SSL client certificates, NTLM, or just basic/digest auth done at the web server level to be used to authenticate users to your Catalyst application (kmx)
    • Tests for this
  • Change ->config invocations to be best practices (t0m)
  • Note about session auto-vification even when use_session is set to false (robert).
  • Note about how a realms key used to be needed to unconfuse people running an old version, but browsing the docs on search.cpan (ruoso)
