Release notes
-------------
(re-release of 1.11.0 - to fix archive tar issue.)

Minor  feature and fix release. (Basically a yearly release now..)

    Dependancies
      
      MDB2 and DB are now optional dependancies, although one of them is required.
    
    
    AutoJoin - improvements      
      - support sqlValue and DB_DataObject_Cast values in setFrom()
      - correct filtering - diff and intersect... so additional cols do not get injected by exclude..
      - autoJoin( "exclude" => array( "col1", "col2") ) should now exclude the columns from selectAdd/As
      - correctly handle include in autojoin - based on derived column names
      - autojoin now supports include and distinct, and returns count as the column to count on + handles Closure on debugging output of config
    
    Other Changes
    - add limited support for building derived table queries - which can speed up mysql queries hugely when using distinct/limit  
    
    Removed / changed / depricated
     - remove PHP4 support
    -  Make staticGet depricated in generator and main code (move to end of file with rest of depricated stuff..
    
    Minor fixes
    - fix signature on depricated staticGet method
    - fix typo in links code DO::getLinks()
    - fix is_a syntax error - RTFM might be a good idea
    - check return value from generator
    - remove blob test from stringtostring code..
