Perl Catalyst Release 5.90131

Version 5.90131 of the Perl MVC web development framework Catalyst just hit CPAN.

This is mostly a minor release that tidied up some docs, including broken links in documentation and metadata. It also added a mailmap file and added 'strict' and 'warnings' to some files that were missing those pragmas. Additionally this version has one new feature, an enhancement to chained action dispatch called 'next action' which allows you to call the next action in the chain programmatically rather than only when the action ends, optionally passing arguments to the next action (and optionally receiving arguments from it). You can read more about this enhancement, including a longer example, here.
