Changes for version 0.10003

  • Added a "Null" store for credentials that don't require real stores.
  • Make realms bonafide objects
  • Added auto_update_user and auto_create_user options to the Realm object
  • Doc updates
  • POSSIBLE INCOMPATIBILITIES
    • authenticate() in credentials are now passed a realm object instead of a store object. A realm object still implements find_user() so unless you're doing something special you won't notice the difference.
