+6.47_02 Thu Oct 16 16:14:20 PDT 2008
+ Test Fixes
+ * MIN_PERL_VERSION test had some goofs on VMS. [thanks Craig Berry]
+
+
+6.47_01 Tue Oct 14 12:38:05 EDT 2008
+ New Features
+ * Added optional parameter MIN_PERL_VERSION, to define minimal
+ required perl version for dependency checks and to pass on to
+ META.yml and ppd files. [rt.cpan.org 28374]
+ Thanks to David Golden, Alexandr Ciornii (chorny) and Martin Becker
+
+ Bug Fixes
+ * Guard against a path to Perl with a space in it.
+ From Max Maischein. [bleadperl@32905]
+
+ Test Fixes
+ - Small fix for VOS from Paul Green [bleadperl@33259]
+
+ Other
+ * $ExtUtils::MakeMaker::Revision, $ExtUtils::MM_Unix::Revision and
+ $ExtUtils::MM_VMS::Revision are all now based on $VERSION. You
+ shouldn't be using them for anything anyway.

+6.46 Sat Sep 27 17:34:03 EDT 2008
+ Bug Fixes
+ - Fix META_MERGE for more than one level of hashes. [rt.cpan.org 39348]
+
+
+6.45_02 Sun Sep 7 13:59:14 PDT 2008
+ Bug Fixes
+ - Updated bundled ExtUtils::Command to 1.14, ExtUtils::Install to
+ 1.50 and ExtUtils::Manifest to 1.54
+
+ Test Fixes
+ - t/writemakefile_args.t had the wrong skip amount causing failures
+ when run without version.pm (mostly 5.6 users)
+
+
+6.45_01 Sat Sep 6 03:19:03 PDT 2008
+ New Features
+ * META_ADD and META_MERGE have been added to manipulate the META.yml.
+ Thanks to Adriano Ferreira. [rt.cpan.org 21282]
+ - META.yml now includes configure_requires ExtUtils::MakeMaker by
+ default. [rt.cpan.org 32337]
+ - META.yml now excludes t/ and inc/ from indexing by default.
+ - META.yml license is now "unknown" instead of undef if a LICENSE is not
+ given.
+ - META.yml now conforms to version 1.4 of the spec.
+
+ Bug Fixes
+ - Make @MM_Sections and @Overridable global again. It's an undocumented
+ but used way to manipulate MakeMaker behavior. [rt.cpan.org 36047]
+
+ Portability
+ * Changed the name/dmake test in MM_Win32.pm to use regexs to that
+ they are able to handle Perl on a Stick absolute paths.
+
+
+6.44 Thu Feb 28 16:06:04 PST 2008
+ Bug Fixes
+ * Updated bundled ExtUtils::Install to 1.45 which should fix some
+ Cygwin issues. [rt.cpan.org 33291]
+
+
+6.43_01 Tue Jan 1 16:06:47 PST 2008
+ Bug Fixes
+ * Change the "is this really a Perl core library directory" checks to
+ look for strict instead of Exporter. Now that Exporter is on CPAN
+ it can wind up in site_perl.
+ * split_command() will now set aside a little more space for macro
+ expansion. This should help on systems with cramped command line
+ lengths. Specifically, Pugs on Win32. [rt.cpan.org 20145]
+
+ Installation
+ * MakeMaker would not install if the installed MakeMaker was too old,
+ like on 5.6.1. The installation process was still using the
+ installed MakeMaker in a few places. This has been fixed.
+ [rt.cpan.org 24746]
+
+ OS X
+ * "make dist" will no longer bundle up resource fork files (._foo).
+ [rt.cpan.org 29525]
+
+ Docs
+ * The documentation of VERSION_FROM was recommending vstrings (1.2.3)
+ which have never worked right.
+ * The documentation for the accepted values of LICENSE moved to
+ Module::Build::API. [rt.cpan.org 32020]
+
+ Tests
+ * The compilation test was testing the installed modules, not the
+ about-to-be-installed.
+ * xs.t would fail if ExtUtils::CBuilder was not installed.
+
+ Misc
+ * Cleanups brought to you by no more 5.5 compatibility!
+ * MakeMaker is now perlcritic clean at severity level 5... except
+ the really silly ones.
+ * DIE use vars DIE!
+ * Added some resources to the META.yml
