Revision history for Log-Abstraction

0.29	Tue May 26 20:36:13 EDT 2026

	[ Enhancements ]
	- Added min_interval throttle to sendmail backend: at most one email per
	  configured interval (seconds); cooldown state stored in _last_email_sent
	  on the object and inherited by clones

	[ Bug Fixes]
	- Bump minimum Test::Mockingbird version to fix https://www.cpantesters.org/cpan/report/f148a3e6-50a2-11f1-8224-a122dd379578

0.28 Fri May 15 20:28:07 EDT 2026

	[ Enhancements ]
	- Added context (ctx) to code ref logger callbacks

	[ Bug Fixes]
	- Fixed carp_on_warn and croak_on_error when logging to an array backend

	- Fixed cloning to a different level (level string now converted to integer)

	- Fixed DESTROY to call Sys::Syslog::closelog() fully-qualified for correct mock interception

	- Fixed warn(undef) and warn(warning => undef) to be silent no-ops

	- Fixed warn(warning => [undef, ...]) to filter undef elements before joining

	- Fixed odd-count plain list in warn/error (_high_priority now wraps get_params in eval)

	- Fixed autovivification of sendmail key via exists() guards on sendmail hash access

	- Fixed %env_foo% format token to expand missing env vars to empty string without warning

	- Fixed ::new() to always construct normally regardless of arguments

	- Removed spurious Carp::croak/carp fallback when array backend is defined
