[ANNOUNCE] Uttu 0.04

VERSION 0.04
  New Features

    Apache::Template
	Apache::Template is now required to use the template content
	handler.

    AxKit Document Roots
	Added support for multiple document roots similar to that in
	HTML::Mason and Template Toolkit.

    Tests
	Added tests. These require Apache::Test, DBI, and DBD::CSV
	since the tests need to be run in a web server and the
	database connection code can't be tested without a database
	to connect to (in this case, CSV files).

Uttu is a web interface driver that works with a framework and
function sets to build an application.  Support is provided for
building the infrastructure for a site -- no demands are made for
doing sessions in a particular way, or authenticating against a
particular database. The actual specifics are defined by the
framework. This allows you to create your own flavor of Uttu, if you
desire, without having to muck around in the Uttu module. Think of
LPC and LPMuds with their driver and mudlib.

To install Uttu, download the distribution, untar, and cd into the
resulting directory.  There, run the following:

  % perl Makefile.PL [UTTU_PREFIX=...]
  % make
  % make test
  % make install
