0.008 December 12, 2009
* It is now possible to extend interfaces, controls, features, and control
features using your application interface. To do so you need to create a
Form::Factory::<type>::Custom::<your-name> class which has a
register_implementation class returning the name of the actual class.

* Correcting Changes. I must have been half-asleep when I wrote up the
change log for 0.006
* Fixing the broken action inheritance test because some objects were sorted
improperly
* Adds a test to find a bug related to running the clean() or
check() or process() method on an action. If the "controls" parameter was
not passed, it did not work correctly. It worked as if the changes to
feature roles made in 0.006 had not been done. This has been corrected.
0.006 December 8, 2009
* The feature role has been split into 5 roles:
* Form::Factory::Feature is now mostly a marker class for features
(still adds common attributes, such as result)
* Form::Factory::Feature::Role::Clean requires the clean method
* Form::Factory::Feature::Role::Check requires the check method
* Form::Factory::Feature::Role::PreProcess requires the pre_process
method
* Form::Factory::Feature::Role::PostProcess requires the post_process
method
* Moved custom message handling for features into separate roles:
Form::Factory::Feature::Role::CustomMessage and
Form::Factory::Feature::Role::CustomControlMessage
* Added a new type of feature, the build_attribute feature allows a control
feature to modify attributes when the meta-class is being setup
* Features should now set is_valid() explicitly for success and failure
* Added more unit tests
0.005 December 6, 2009
* Make sure get_all_features() in the meta class does not clobber feature
config when a parent class uses the same feature with a different
configuration. This might need some more tweaking since we do want to
avoid running an identical feature multiple times.
0.004 December 3, 2009
* The render_control() and consume_control() methods now return the control
object rendered or consumed.
* The Button control is now a boolean value rather than a preset value to
make it much more useful
* The CLI interface does not consume arguments from boolean values anymore,
it just flips them on or off based on the fact they are present or not
* Added unit tests for render_control() and consume_control()
0.003 December 3, 2009
* Adding a consume_control() method to the Action role
* Correcting a problem with how Form::Factory::Result returns messages when
in scalar context (it was not stringifying properly before)
* Adding more unit tests
0.002 November 30, 2009
* Renamed Form::Factory::Factory to Form::Factory::Interface
* Adding a CLI interface for developing command-line interfaces
* Adding several helpful control roles: BooleanValue, HiddenValue,
MultiLine, and PresetValue
* Made the ScalarValue and ListValue control roles mutually exclusive
* Control objects copy the original attribute's documentation attribute
0.001 November 29, 2009
* Initial release includes the experimental API, basic controls, and a
factory for rendering and consuming HTML forms
