      • Mark "any" and "all" as "to be discussed"

      • Bump minimum perl version to 5.8.1

    • Split implementations between existing authors
    • Switch to DynaLoader and Exporter::Tiny

    • Rely for testing on Test::WriteVariants and Data::Tumbler (DBI::Test technology to improve tests)

    • Fix 64-bit integer precision (CPAN RT#93207)

    • Fix compile error on threaded perls (CPAN RT#93934)

    • Fix some spelling issues (CPAN RT#86347, CPAN RT#87490)

    • Clarify dependencies, especially recommended ones
    • Add some additional tests to prove reported bugs
    • Rename implementations from alias => relax and tassilo => strict

    • Remove 'sno' implementation

    • Add precedence 'default' in addition to 'all' for those who prefer strict over relax

    • Refactor LMU

    • Reorganize and clarify documentation
    • Revise SYNOPSIS and DESCRIPTION for revised export model

    • Introduce ":like_*" import tags

    • Remove Data::Tumbler and Module::Pluggable from configure dependencies; they're coming with Test::WriteVariants

    • Refactor import tags for clarity
    • Bundle non-core modules (compared to 5.14)
    • Bundle configure_requires using inc::latest

    • Lower minimum perl required to 5.6

    • Switch to check_produce_loadable_xs_build of Config::AutoConf 0.307

  • I couldn't get the XS version working on perl 5.8, so the update is only built for distributions with perl 5.10 onwards (F-9, EL-6 onwards)
