#------------------------------------------------------------------------

* Applied two patches from Leon to fix bug in constant folding with
  multiple replacements (a missing 'g' on a s///)

* Applied a patch from Tatsuhiko Miyagawa to Template::Constants to
  replace 'our' perl5.6isms.

* Added the Template::Plugin::Procedural module for creating plugins that
  use subroutines rather than method calls.

* Fixed a html.t test to allow numerical instead of named entities (mark)

* Added the params() method to the CGI plugin.

* Changed File::Temp and File::Basename to be loaded dynamically in
  Template::Document as and when needed.  Thanks to a patch from
  Bradley Baetz.

* Added a preload() method to Template::Config to preload in advance
  all the Template::* modules typically used.  Also added call to
  preload() from Template module if $ENV{MOD_PERL} is set.

* Applied a patch from Randal Schwartz to fix rowspan attribute in
  templates/html/cell and templates/html/row
