Changes for version 0.035

  • When using Rod Sladen's data for Iridium status, mark all 'failed' iridiums as tumbling, whether or not there is a 't' next to their numbers. This makes the Sladen data consistent with Mike McCants' (as of 22-Dec-2008) and T. S. Kelso's. Bring all code up to perlcritic --stern (sometimes by declaring exceptions) Restructure Build.PL and Makefile.PL to better accomodate the installed version of Module::Build or ExtUtils::MakeMaker. Add minimum Perl version to 'requires' key in Build.PL. Not done in Makefile.PL because ExtUtils::MakeMaker does not seem to like it. Include t/celestrak_datasets.t, t/executable.t, t/iridium_status.t, t/manifest.t, and t/spacetrack_datasets.t in distribution, but only run them if environment variable DEVELOPER_TEST is true. Move changes from Astro::SpaceTrack pod to Changes file. t/basic.t will now display net errors where generated and (hopefully) appropriate.
