Changes entries for this release:

0.18  Sat Feb 04 00:18:58 2006
        - Docs updates, including module deprecation notice


The "module deprecation notice" above is this:

=head1 IMPORTANT NOTICE

This module is deprecated in favor of L<DBIx::Class::Schema::Loader> for
use with L<DBIx::Class> versions 0.05 and higher.  It continues to
function as well as it ever did, even for recent L<DBIx::Class> releases,
and will be maintained for some time to counter bugs, but it doesn't use
the now-preferred L<DBIx::Class::Schema> way of doing things, and tends
to promote bad L<DBIx::Class> usage habits.

DBIx-Class-Schema-Loader is now at version 0.01002 on CPAN, and it
seems like it should work for most people.  Please give it a shot. 
The transition could be rough for some, as some Loader users are
probably using Loader-isms in their DBIx::Class code that will need to
be changed to Schema-isms.  By 0.02 I expect it to be fairly stable,
other than future feature additions for obtaining better metadata and
building smarter relationships.
