Hi,

I've just released File::Spec 0.85 to CPAN:

The uploaded file

File-Spec-0.85.tar.gz

has entered CPAN as

  file: $CPAN/authors/id/K/KW/KWILLIAMS/File-Spec-0.85.tar.gz
  size: 28682 bytes
   md5: 10bd668beb9f256442e5399074e4fb1c

Changes since 0.84:

 - File::Spec::Mac->case_tolerant() returned 0 when it should have
   returned 1.

 - Many cases in File::Spec::Win32->abs2rel() were broken, because of
   the way in which volumes were/weren't ignored.  Unfortunately, part
   of the regression tests were broken too.  Now, if the $path
   argument to abs2rel() is on a different volume than the $base
   argument, the result will be an absolute path rather than the
   broken relative path previous versions returned.

 - Fixed a problem in File::Spec::Win32->canonpath, which was turning
   \../foo into "foo" rather than \foo

- Greatly simplified the code in File::Spec::Unix->splitdir().

 - Dependencies are now listed explicitly in the Makefile.PL and
   Build.PL scripts, as well as in the META.yml file.

 - The t/abs2rel2abs.t test should now be more friendly about skipping
   on platforms where it can't run properly.


It seems appropriate to get these fixes into blead for the 5.8.1 track - I've tried to be very conservative with the changes, in order for this to happen.


What should happen next?

-Ken
