Pylons 0.9.3 Released!

[Ben Bangert]

I'm quite happy to announce that 0.9.3 has been released. Some of the
more noticeable improvements:
- Tracebacks will hide the Pylons and middleware stack if the error
occured in your code. This makes it easier to focus on the cause of
the exception, which is most likely in your code. You can still click
Full Traceback to see the whole thing.
- A new minimal template is available, if you want to see just how
different and minimal you can have a Pylons projects. Take a look at
a minimal one:
paster create --template=pylons_minimal
(Note that paster shell doesn't currently work with the minimal
project template)
- Various bug fixes
- Updates to minimum Paste requirement, as Paste is now 1.0.
- Lots of deprecation warnings so you know what to change before
Pylons 1.0. :)

From the changelog:
* Updated project template to support full_stack option to make it
easier to
use Pylons apps within larger WSGI stacks.
* Added deprecation warnings to legacy objects and for 1.0
functionality that
will change.
* Added cache decorator and Cheetah template functional tests. Patch
and unit
tests provided by Climbus.
* Fixed readline support in the stock interactive console paster shell.
Reported by Alex Conrad.
* A controller's __after__ method will now be called after actions
invoke
redirect_to (or raise any HTTPException). Reported by David Turner.
* Fixed config to use myghty_data_dir instead of cache_dir setting if
its
set as well. Reported by Shannon -jj Behrens.
* Added traceback hiding so that more of the traceback relating to
Pylons code
is removed from the default traceback making it easier to focus on
the code
in an app that actually caused the problem. Closes #119.
* Added ability to use '_' translation method directly from templates
and in
the controller without having to use it under h._.
* Added 's' and 'l' Myghty escaping flags to default project templates.
Suggested by Jamie Wilkinson. Closes #110.
* Fixed SCGI bug with QUERY_STRING test when WSGI states it doesn't
have to
exist. Reported by Riklaunim.
* Added pylons_minimal template, prone to fine-tuning.
* Added option for PylonsApp to take a globals object to avoid
checking a
hardcoded path for a Globals object.
* Removed old Helpers legacy object entirely, replaced pylons.h with
proper
StackedObjectProxy. Cleaned up PylonsApp and PylonsBaseApp to
accept a
helpers reference so that Pylons can be ignorant of where the
helpers came
from.
* Fixed bug with lang app_conf option being set improperly. Reported
by Laurent.
* Fixed pylons.h to work proper with new and old-style helper imports.
* Fixed render functions always passing disable_unicode=False to Myghty.

Cheers,
Ben

I was all excited about upgrading, but pylonshq has been down for a
while now (it's been about an hour since I first noticed).

Yes, my bad. I screwed up my apache conf file last night and didn't
test it properly. sigh. It's up and fine now.
