    • Custom processors, datastores, generators and analysers are made easier by Content object which has convenience methods
    • ✂ Removed "encoders" - these are covered by processors now
    • ✂ Removed "job" shortcuts - they are not needed as processors can invoke other processors
    • No "smart" determination of mime-type - just use file extension (anything more than that can be done by the user)
    • 📇 metadata is required to be serializable to/from JSON
    • removed allow_fetch_file and allow_fetch_url in favour of more fine-control with fetch_file_whitelist and fetch_url_whitelist

    • 🚅 validates_property uses Rails 3 validators
    • 🔧 Deprecated saved 'heroku' config, in favour of configuring S3 explicitly

    • identify wasn't working properly for files with capital letter extensions
    • 0️⃣ S3 datastore sets content mime_type by default

    # 0.9.3 (2011-06-03)
