2.1900  2025-08-05
  [Fixed]
    - CVE-2025-40918 (Insecure source of randomness),
      required addition of dependency on Crypt::URandom
  [Changed]
    - Modules Authen::SASL::Perl::CRAM_MD5, Authen::SASL::Perl::DIGEST_MD5
      and Authen::SASL::CRAM_MD5 marked as deprecated based on the respective
      RFC documents; thanks to @robrwo for the suggestion and @neustradamus
      for the pointers to the documentation
    - Update module metadata to point to the new 'perl-authen-sasl' org
      on GitHub to which the modules moved
    - Use VERSION declarations in 'package' statements, since our minimum
      Perl version is 5.14 anyway


2.1800  2025-04-25
  [Changed]
    - Minimum required Perl version 5.14+ (from 5.6.0);
      Digest::HMAC_MD5 was 5.8.1, making 5.8.1 the effective minimum
    - Move example code to the eg/ directory

  [Added]
    - Mechanisms XOAUTH2 and OAUTHBEARER added
    - Include mechanisms available on server when
      negotiation fails on the client
    - Add `_acceptable()` function to allow mechanism
      implementation classes to decline selection based
      on the callback values


2.1700  2023-08-09
  [Fixed]
    - Version numbering (released as 2.1700,
      because 2.17 < 2.1401)
    - POD errors
    - Typos
    - Minimum Perl version 5.005 -> 5.6.0
    - Kwalitee errors
      * Accidentally packaged MYMETA.*
      * 'use warnings;' added in all modules
      * Synchronized versions in all modules
    - Out of bounds substr() (RT 85294)
  [Added]
    - README
    - More tests
  [Changed]
    - Release switched from EUMM to D::Z
  [Removed]
    - Authen::SASL::Cyrus is no longer loaded as
      an implementation; Authen::SASL::XS has been
      the successor for more than a decade
