+Imager 0.78 - 4 Oct 2010
+===========
+
+Bug fixes:
+
+ - don't access deprecated members of the png_structp.
+ https://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=60242
+
+ - document that using color objects is faster than supplying colors
+ by name, etc.
+ https://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=61047
+
+ - Imager::Probe now accepts array references for incpath and libpath.
+ https://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=60244
+
+Imager 0.77_02 - 27 Sep 2010
+==============
+
+ - moved Win32, FreeType 2 font support into sub-modules.
+ https://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=49616 (partial)
+ Uses Imager::Probe now.
+ https://rt.cpan.org/Public/Bug/Display.html?id=61328
+
+ - tested successfully with jpeg-8b
+ https://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=60221
+
+Bug fixes:
+
+ - from _01: look for missing file support test files in the right
+ places.
+
+ - flood_fill() wouldn't fill the right side of a single scan-line
+ fill area.
+ Thanks to Nicolas Roggli for reporting this.
+
+ - flood_fill wouldn't fill to the left edge of the image if the
+ starting line didn't reach the left edge.
+ Thanks to Nicolas Roggli for reporting this.
+
+Imager 0.77_01 - 13 Sep 2010
+==============
+
+ - add each library-directory/pkgconfig/ to the pkg-config search path
+ in Imager::Probe.
+ Thanks to Justin Davis.
+ https://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=60491
+
+ - moved GIF, TIFF, JPEG file handling code into sub-modules in
+ preparation for separate distribution.
+ https://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=49616 (partial)
+
+ - optimize filled box drawing (color, not fill)
+
+Bug fixes:
+
+ - Imager::Probe was calling ExtUtils::Liblist to initialize
+ LD_RUN_PATH supplying an undefined value rather than the found
+ directory. Thanks to Justin Davis.
+ https://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=60491
+
+ - only prepend ./ to font filenames when passing them to T1Lib and
+ then only when it would use its search mechanisms.
+ https://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=60509
+
+ - fix the cache check for the X rgb.txt loader. This is typically
+ used for color translation on Unix-like systems, and the fix
+ improves performance of supplying colors by name by about 80 times.
+ Test code that managed 3400 10x10 pixel boxes/second sped up to
+ 25700 boxes/second.
+
+ - clarify that Imager doesn't write EXIF metadata to images.
+ https://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=60637
+
+ - Imager::Probe can now search subdirectories under its include path.
+ Used by the PNG Makefile.PL to find headers and libraries when they
+ aren't in the base directory, as in cygwin.
+ https://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=60635
+
+Imager 0.77 - 11 Aug 2010
+===========
+
+I don't want Imager::File::PNG indexed as part of Imager, but forgot
+to update the META.yml before updating the version.
+
+ - don't index Imager::File::PNG as part of Imager
+
+ - add resources to META.yml
+
+Imager 0.76 - not released
+===========
+
+Bug fixes:
+
+ - the align_string() method would ignore a string of "0" due to a
+ mis-use of C< ||= >.
+ Thanks to Maurice Height for reporting this.
+ https://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=60199
+
+Imager 0.75_03 - 09 Aug 2010
+==============
+
+Bug fixes:
+
+ - read_types() and write_types() would include png when it wasn't
+ available due to a problem with the %formats tie
+
+ - handle dependent libraries correctly (eg -lpng requiring -lz) in
+ the code run phase of library probing.
+
+Imager 0.75_02 - 07 Aug 2010
+==============
+
+Bug fixes:
+
+ - add file missing from MANIFEST, which was causing TIFF failures.
+
+Imager 0.75_01 - 06 Aug 2010
+==============
+
+Test release for the new PNG probe.
+
+ - added the ability to read multiple-image PNM files.
+ Note that unlike the pbm/pgm/ppm specification this accepts mixed
+ format files and allows white space padding between files.
+ Thanks to Philip Gwyn (Leolo) for this patch.
+
+ - moved the PNG file handling code into a sub-module in preparation
+ for separate distribution.
+ https://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=49616 (partial)
+ Also helps avoid complications from -I/-L compile/link options from
+ other libraries.
+
+Bugs:
+
+ - Imager->new(data => $data) didn't try to process image file data in
+ $data
+ https://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=58761
+
+ - t/t50basicoo.t no longer depends on the other tests to generate its
+ input files.
+ https://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=9798
+ Also, it wasn't testing pnm (pnm vs ppm mix-up)
+
+ - update the documentation of hardinvert to match the change in 0.62.
+ https://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=59785
+
+ - added hardinvertall filter which also inverts the alpha channel
+ (sorry for the mess)
+
+ - when probing for TIFF, set LD_RUN_PATH just as the Makefile does so
+ the probe can find the library for the test run.
+ https://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=57518
+
+Imager 0.75 - 20 Jun 2010
+===========
+
+ - use PERL_NO_GET_CONTEXT to slightly improve performance on threaded
+ perls (not measured)
+
+Bugs:
+
+ - an opacity fill based on a fountain fill would segfault when
+ filling an 8-bit/sample image.
+
+ - merge thickline branch polygon fix
+ https://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=43518
+
+Imager 0.74 - 7 May 2010
+===========
+
+Bug fixes:
+
+ - read_multi() didn't handle a missing file format library correctly,
+ aborting on failing to call i_readgif_multi_wiol() or
+ i_readtiff_multi_wiol().
+
+ - fix spelling errors patched by Debian
+ http://svn.debian.org/viewsvn/pkg-perl/trunk/libimager-perl/debian/patches/spelling.patch?revision=54839&view=markup
+
+ - add an (unshipped) author test to spellcheck Imager's POD.
+
+ - update the TIFF file format documentation
+ https://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=56510
+
+ - lib/Imager/IO.pod was written almost 4 years ago but never shipped.
+
+Imager 0.73 - 15 Mar 2010
+===========
+
+ - implement outline circles, both anti-aliased and not
+ https://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=19755
+
+ - a combine => "none" fill to a 1 or 3 channel image would produce
+ the incorrect colour.
+
+Imager 0.72 - 09 Dec 2009
+===========
+
+Bump version for release, since 0.71_03 is stable with CPAN testers.
+
+Imager 0.71_03 - 5 Dec 2009
+==============
+
+ - further adjust the threads test so it only performs the tests on
+ perls where it's expected to work, and only if the threads module
+ can be loaded.
+
+Imager 0.71_02 - 1 Dec 2009
+==============
+
+ - adjust the way we load the threads module for the threads test so
+ it works with non-threaded perls
+
+Imager 0.71_01 - 30 Nov 2009
+===========
+
+Bug fixes:
+
+ - use scanline oriented operations to flip images instead of pixel
+ operations
+ https://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=39278
+
+ - use double/sample operations to flip large sample images instead of
+ 8-bit sample operations.
+ https://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=39280
+
+ - fix POD nits
+ https://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=51874
+
+ - prevent double-frees when someone creates Imager objects and then
+ creates a thread. Note: this just handles some simple cases,
+ Imager doesn't support perl threads, and isn't likely to.
+ https://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=52268
+
+Imager 0.71 - 16 Nov 2009
+===========
+
+ - add the opacity fill type - an adaptor that modifies the opacity of
+ another fill.
+
+Bug fixes:
+
+ - the conv filter now enforces that the sum of the coefficients is
+ non-zero. Also, rather than skipping pixels off the edge off the
+ edge of the image, the closest edge pixel is used. Previously
+ dividing by the zero sum of coefficients could cause invalid
+ results or runtime exceptions.
+ Thanks to David Cantrell's Alpha-NetBSD CPAN test box for revealing
+ this bug.
+
+Imager 0.70 - 21 Sep 2009
+===========
+
+Bug fixes:
+
+ - release image row and comments memory on all error returns in gif
+ reader
+
+ - handle zero length extensions, previously this would cause a null
+ pointer dereference
+ Thanks to Krzysztof WojtaÅ for the test data and fix for this.
+
+ - an integer division meant that preview scaling to below 1 pixel
+ wide or high (which isn't too useful anyway) was calculating using
+ NaNs on most platforms, and causing an exception on others.
+ Thanks to David Cantrell for producing a backtrace of the crash on
+ his Alpha-NetBSD CPAN test box which made it possible to track this
+ down.
+
+Imager 0.69 - 08 Sep 2009
+===========
+
+Bug fixes:
+
+ - broken test fix - was attempting to call a function skip_all, when
+ that should be a parameter to plan().
+
+ - briefly document apidocs.perl, the tool used to build
+ Imager::APIRef and make some minor enhancements
+
+ - various minor documentation enhancements and fixes.
+
+Imager 0.68 - 07 Sep 2009
+===========
+
+ - Imager->new(file => $filename) and other similar incantations will
+ load the given file.
+ https://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=48261
+
+Bug fixes:
+
+ - avoid using CHECK as a label in Imager::Test
+ http://nntp.x.perl.org/group/perl.cpan.testers/5220921
+
+ - re-work most image file test files that require a library into
+ separate library present/not present files to remove stupidly long
+ conditionals
+
+ - don't treat rubthrough() outside the bounds of the target image as
+ an error.
+ http://nntp.x.perl.org/group/perl.cpan.testers/5185716
+
+Imager 0.67_01 - 02 Sep 2009
+==============
+
+Bug fixes:
+
+ - correct documentation of default of raw image interleave read
+ parameter
+ https://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=42074
+
+ - add raw_ prefix to raw read parameters, though the original names
+ still work.
+
+ - fail the read if an invalid raw_interleave parameter is supplied
+
+ - warn if no interleave or raw_interleave parameter is supplied,
+ since the documented default was wrong, and incompatible with the
+ write format
+
+ - for reading raw images, if raw_storechannels > raw_datachannels,
+ set the extra channels in the image to 0
+
+ - when probing for executables like freetype-config, search for .bat
+ and .cmd on MSWin32, as well as .exe.
+ https://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=49275
+
+ - re-work the external libraries section of README:
+ - list Debian and Redhat package names for each library
+ - reformatting
+ - update URLs
+
+ - use the new EU::MM META_MERGE facility instead of generating
+ META.yml from scratch
+ https://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=47888
+
+ - use Devel::CheckLib (bundled, modified) to check which release of
+ libtiff is installed and reject 3.9.0
+ http://bugzilla.maptools.org/show_bug.cgi?id=2088
+ http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=543079
