v2.4.1 Changes
April 03, 2008
🚀 This release takes aim at improving compatability with ActiveSupport. It also reintroduces an improved paramix.rb.

🔄 Changes:
- 4 Major Enhancements
  - A much improved paramix.rb has been returned to the library.
  - There a no longer capitialize module methods at all.
  - Use Module#[] and mixin_params[] instead.
  - Deprecated behavior.rb. It was not robust.
  - Added basex.rb, for working in any encoding base using any character set (base62 is the default).
- 3 Minor Enhancements
  - Comparing to ActiveSupport, found 63 extension clashes, but most are due to 1.9 features. The rest should be compatible.
  - Reatomized a number of Kernel and String methods. Reatomization is nearly complete.
  - Continued work on reatomizing core extensions (nearly complete now).
v2.4.0 Changes
March 24, 2008
🚀 Facets 2.4 is a major step forward for Facets. It is perhaps the release 🚀 that 2.0 should have been, but of course it took the actual 2.0 release ⚡️ to make 2.4 possible. Some annoyances you may have encountered in updating 🛠 your code to 2.0 are now fixed. And from 2.4 on, Facets will now be 🚀 settling down into simple refinement release cycles for a while.

The main change under the hood is to bring everything up to the top lib/facets/ directory. No longer are the libraries sorted by category. I had done so for a long time to make it easier to track the various libs, 🏗 but in the end it was only making it more diffcult to deal with build tools and packaging.

For the end-user, the largest change is a new emphisis on:

require 'facets'

👀 This is better than cherry-picking methods. It may seem counter- intuitive, but it actually proves more advantantages to do this for the sake of interoperability than the practice of cherry-picking. The reason is simply because others may have cherry-picked different ✅ methods, and those distinctions go unaccounted and untested.

🚀 Also with this release, to bolster the use of require 'facets', 🗄 some lack-luster extensions have been deprecated and namespace usage has been improved. In addition, we are getting very close to full 💎 ActiveSupport, and Ruby 1.9, interoperability. Expect this 🚀 to be complete in the next minor release or two.

🔄 Changes:
- ✨ Enhancements
  - String#to_re and String#to_rx have swapped default behaviors. #to_rx escapes, #to_re does not.
  - The Console namespace is being deprecated. command.rb and arguments.rb now use CLI naemspace.
  - #compare_on and #equate_on are now "mixin methods" Comparable() and Equateable().
  - Enumerable#product, #combintations and #permutations have change to be Ruby 1.9 compatible.
  - thread.rb, map_send, et al, block is passed to send instead of yielding on result.
  - namespace.rb has been renamed to methodspace.rb.
  - Ruby 1.9 defined a new Proc#curry method, so Facets version has been made compatible.
  - The old curry method is now called #partial, as in "partial application".
  - Deprecated interface.rb. Perhaps a better approach but nonetheless extraneous.
  - Deprecated paramix.rb. A better way is to use a capitialized methods. (Perhaps a lib for that?)
  - Brought back a few web related libs, htmlfilter.rb and cssfilter.rb in particular.
  - camelcase and snakecase are core extensions. For specialized styles use String#style in style.rb.
