Hello,

I'm pleased to announce the 3.4.0 release of MediaWiki::Bot. It will be
indexed on the CPAN shortly, and is also available on Google Code[0].

file: $CPAN/authors/id/L/LI/LIFEGUARD/MediaWiki-Bot-3.4.0.tar.gz
size: 65444 bytes
md5: b2f01f66ed0d1ca57b449eb3b5f9ee52

This release includes both new features and bug fixes:

* global_image_usage() provides basic GlobalUsage query support
* When calling test_image_exists() with an array reference, the results
are now returned in the correct order
* Some deprecations which previously warned have now been enacted:
- set_highlimits() has been removed
- PWP and perlwikipedia aliases have been removed
* The dependencies for HTTPS have been updated in accordance with the
split of LWP
* Old, unnecessary, dependencies have been removed

Because of the bug fixes included, this is a recommended upgrade for all
users.

To upgrade using the CPAN shell:
shell$ sudo -i
shell# cpan
cpan> upgrade MediaWiki::Bot
...
^D

To upgrade manually, download and unpack the tarball. In the unpacked
directory, run:
perl Makefile.PL
make
make test
sudo make install

If you would like to help with development, please feel free to get in
touch. There are several bugs waiting to be taken on, and documentation
patches are always welcome. You can submit patches to this mailing list,
to a bug on Google Code, or as a pull request on Github [1].

Thanks,
- -Mike
