ReleaseNotes - These are the Release Notes for 1.19
These are the major changes since version 1.18.
I have done more refactoring and wrote some new code and documentation since v1.18.
Major changes since 1.18
I finally got around to rewriting mkovz.pl and replaced it with Test::Smoke::Reporter and decided to use <mailrpt.pl> as the new front-end.
The new reports have better hardware/OS detection, with many thanks to Merijn Brand (most osses), Campo Weijerman (AIX), Allen Smith (IRIX), Alan Burlison (Solaris).
The compiler info is now logged after each Configure, so this is will be available in reports even though the last Configure failed.
After "many" requests, the old stuff (mktest.pl, mkovz.pl etc) is now gone (although I had planned the 1.20)!
smokestatus.pl tries to give a better guesstimate for ETA. It also has the new --matrix option to also show the smoke-matrix with the status report.
--matrix
Some work has been done on the Win32 side. Most notably a start has been made to try and support Win98. Also some work on the W32Configure.pl script.
The behaviour attached to the cc option for Test::Smoke::Mailer has changed so that it will now only send Cc: on failure.
