[Release] Test-Reporter-1.29_01

[afo...@gmail.com]

A developer release, Test-Reporter-1.29_01, is now available.

Via CPAN: http://search.cpan.org/~fox/Test-Reporter-1.29_01/
Via subversion: https://test-reporter.googlecode.com/svn/tags/1.29_01

This release will become 1.30 unless regressions are discovered.

This line of development has many changes over the current CPAN
release (1.27), which was released over two years ago. Quite a number
of defects have been addressed and enhancements added. Please consult
the Changes file, subversion logs, RT queue, and the Google defect
tracker for additional information.

I'm particularly interested in making sure that this release doesn't
break any part of the stack. I'd very much love to have assurances
that CPAN-YACSmoke, CPAN-Reporter, and similar tools continue to
operate as expected.

Thank you!

[Adam Foxson]

I really appreciate the feedback. I'll have that issue corrected and
_02 released in short order. Thanks!
