 Revision history for Variable-Magic
 
+0.53    2013-09-01 17:50 UTC
+        This is a maintenance release. The code contains no functional change.
+        Satisfied users of version 0.52 can skip this update.
+        + Fix : [RT #86338] : typo fix.
+                Thanks dsteinbrunner@pobox.com for the patch.
+        + Tst : Author tests are no longer bundled with this distribution.
+                They are only made available to authors in the git repository.
+
+0.52    2012-11-05 02:30 UTC
+        + Add : The new constant VMG_COMPAT_SCALAR_NOLEN evaluates to true
+                when your perl does not call 'len' magic for scalars, which
+                is the case for perl 5.17.4 and above.
+                This fixes RT #80388.
+        + Tst : t/35-stash.t has been taught about perl 5.17.4.
+        + Tst : Author tests overhaul.
+
+0.51    2012-08-18 15:00 UTC
+        + Fix : It is now safe to call dispell() from inside 'free', 'copy' and
+                'uvar' callbacks to dispell the magic currently in use.
+                Thanks Clinton Gormley for reporting.
+        + Fix : Exceptions thrown from inside a 'free' callback are now always
+                consistently propagated outside of the callback. They used to
+                be lost when the 'free' callback was invoked at the end of an
+                eval block or string.
+        + Fix : The 'reset RMG flag' workaroundn used to allow wizards with
+                both 'uvar' and 'clear' magics to be cast onto a hash, has been
+                made thread-safe.

 0.50    2012-06-24 23:00 UTC
         + Fix : Less memory is leaked when a wizard is freed during global
                 destruction, or when an exception is thrown from a 'free'
