Announce: Last Call - RC of C::P::Authentication

Hey all,

Big news!  With the most excellent assistance of J. Shirley
and
Nilson Santos Figueiredo Junior - The new
C::P::Authentication
finally has all it's tests and, we feel, is ready for
release.

Thus - the Release Candidate is now on CPAN at:

http://search.cpan.org/~jayk/Catalyst-Plu
gin-Authentication-0.09999_02/

For those of you using custom, or unusual stores or
credentials -
PLEASE TEST THIS in your config!  The update makes a lot of
changes
to the internals of the authentication system, and while
there is a
compatibility mode which should maintain functionality with
older
modules - only a handful have actually been tested.

So again - if you have a custom store or credential, or you
use
something aside from the DBIC store module and
Password credential - it's a very VERY good idea to test
against the
updated C::P::Authentication module.

If nobody shouts 'stop the presses' in the next couple of
days, we
will be doing a full release and bumping the CPAN version
next week.

For those who have authored Stores or Credentials - it's
probably a
good idea to look at:

http://tinyurl.com/3x5yu3  (C::P::A::Internals)

to better understand how the new system works and how to
update your
modules for compatibility.  Modules that are not updated
will
continue to work in compatibility mode, but will not allow
users to
take advantage of the new Realms features.

Again, PLEASE TEST this module with your apps!  We will most
likely
release mid-week if we get no bug reports!

Thanks all!

JayK

AOK here with the custom Mango stuff (although, I already
converted it
to  the last dev release).
