  • Replaced all remaining uses of renderCompat with render
  • Removed unused variables and made Bson.toString const (thanks to Brian Schott aka Hackerpilot) - issue #659

Bug fixes

• Fixed the order of events reported by setTaskEventCallback when new tasks are started within an existing task
• Fixed HTTP multi-file uploads by changing HTTPServerRequest.files to a DictionaryList
• Fixed @byName to work for serializing (associative) arrays of enums
• Fixed SSL based SMTP connections (by Martin Nowak) - pull #609
• Fixed Diet text blocks (tag. style) to properly remove the input file indentation - issue #614
• Fixed isStronglyIsolated!T to work for interface types
• Fixed filterURLEncode to encode certain special characters (such as "{") - issue #632
