   [ Martín Ferrari ]
   * New upstream release. Closes: #386565 (and probably many more).
   * debian/control:
     - Bumped very old Standards-Version 3.6.2.2 (no changes needed).
     - Moved debhelper to Build-Depends.
     - Added quilt build-dependency for documentation patches to be added.
     - New run-time dependency: libhtml-tagset-perl.
     - New run-time dependency: netbase (Closes: #424737).
   * debian/compat: to version 5.
   * debian/copyright: converted to UTF-8, updated and converted to new format.
   * debian/rules: revamped with current group practices. Added quilt support.
   * debian/patches/documentation_fixes.patch: Patch to:
     - bin/lwp-request: mention GET, POST and HEAD in the POD, fixed the
       discrepancies between the synopsis, the POD description and the cmdline
       help (-C and -P options, plus short options summary), also added some
       standard markup in POD synopsis (Closes: #396968, #408426, #354905)
     - libwww-perl/lib/HTTP/Cookies.pm: updated Netscape cookies spec's URL
       (Closes: #422732).
     Sent upstream as CPAN#31346.
   * debian/patches/lwp-request_use_base_when_dumping_links.patch: Moved
     changes made in the diff.gz to a quilt patch. This patch makes lwp-request
     honour the -b option when dumping links (#294595). Sent upstream as
     CPAN#31347.
   * Removed change made to Makefile.PL in the diff.gz as it is not necessary
     to allow MakeMaker to create the GET, HEAD and POST copies (we make
     links). Removed relevant parts of debian/rules, too.
 
   [ Damyan Ivanov ]
   * Add a bit more text to debian/copyright to make it clearer:
     + Note perl's licensing terms
     + A few more words to packaging license
   * Add myself to Uploaders
   * Clean debian/rules:
     + drop unneeded arrange target
     + drop unnecessary binary-stamp, binary-arch-stamp and binary-indep-stamp
     + fix target inter-dependencies
       - make install-stamp depend on build-stamp
     + drop unused dh_installexamples
     + move cleaning of -stamp files before distclean
   * Add list of previous maintainers to debian/copyright. Also add list of all
     authors from AUTHORS file.
