Kelp 0.9001 released (new features)

[Stefan Geneshky]

Hi everyone,

A new version of Kelp was just released - https://metacpan.org/pod/Kelp

This version introduces some exciting new features, while keeping complete backwards compatibility.

Bug Fixes:

• Curly braces get stripped from pattern checks (@hstaugaard)
  
• Remove HTTP_X headers from Kelp::Request (security hole)
  

New features

• Allow for extending Kelp::Routes and using custom routers (Maurice Aubrey)
  
• Create Kelp::Routes::Controller, which reblesses the web app into a controller class (Maurice Aubrey)
  
• Set env KELP_CONFIG_WARN to warn for missing config files
  
• Set rendered to true when redirecting (Julio Fraire)
  
• Add request_ok method to Kelp::Test
  
• Config module optionally registers _cfg method, to help manipulate the configuration.
  
• Add a cookie jar to Kelp::Test
  

The highlight of this release is the ability to rebless the app instance into a controller class. Please read more about it here:
