    MAJOR FEATURE RELEASE:

        * Added multiple dispatch

        * Added return types

        * Added nameless sigiled positional variables

        * Added type-only positional variables

        * Added literal value constraints

        * Added arrays and hashes as attributes

        * Added typed lexical variables (via 'lex' declarator)


    Other fixes:

        * Documented unresolved issues with quotelikes,
          and now generate error messages for them

        * Various doc tweaks (mainly corrected code examples for Tuple type)

        * Added Dios::Types::Pure to MANIFEST so it's actually indexed
          (Sorry, Olivier!)




0.002000  Tue Jun 20 06:04:11 2017


        * Clarified use of eval{} in documentation
          (thanks Olivier)


0.002001  Wed Jun 21 14:51:09 2017

        * Refined dependency specification for Keyword::Declare


0.002002  Wed Jun 28 07:08:14 2017

        * Fixed parameter handling in methods with explicit return type
          but implicit invocant (thanks, Jeff!)


0.002003  Sun Jul 16 15:17:11 2017

        * Various extensions to Dios::Types (thanks Toby!)
            - Added Hash[KEYTYPE => VALUETYPE]
            - Extended Can[METHODNAME] to also allow Can[METHODNAME1, METHODNAME2, ETC]
            - Added Overloads[OP, OP, ETC] to test whether value overloads operators

        * Improved performance of certain typechecks in Dios::Types
            - Int check now much faster

        * Added validator_for() function to Dios::Types API
          to allow type checks to be precompiled
          (and thereafter 2-3 times faster)

        * Made Dios::Types transparent to the Carp module

        * Patched a bug in initialization of Dios hash fields
          that was caused by core parser changes in Perl 5.22+
          (Thanks, Jeff!)
