Re: Announcement: Moose 2.0800 is released!

Ouch! You're right. My apologies for the confusion. The examples should be this:

    use 5.01000;
    { package a; use Moose::Role; sub result { 'a' } }                                                                              
    { package b; use Moose::Role; }
    { package c; use Moose::Role; with qw(a b); sub result { 'c' } }
    { package d; use Moose::Role; with qw(c); }
    {
        package Consumer; use Moose;
        with 'd';
    }
    say Consumer->new->result;

Versus:

    use 5.01000;
    { package a; use Moose::Role; with qw(b c); sub result { 'a' } }
    { package b; use Moose::Role; }
    { package c; use Moose::Role; sub result { 'c' } }
    { package d; use Moose::Role; with qw(a); }                                                                                     
    {
        package Consumer; use Moose;
        with 'd';
    }
    say Consumer->new->result;

Only the order of role consumption is changed, but the behavior is now different.

Cheers,
Ovid
