1) Controller::$input is gone -- use Input::instance() now
2) Handle new 'database.<default>.connection.params' parameter
3) Handle new 'cache.<default>.prefix' parameter
Add xxx_installer::upgrade($version) method so that upgrade stanzas
are separate from install stanzas. In the old code, to do an upgrade
meant that you had to re-evolve everything from the initial install
because we'd step through each version's changes. But what we really
want is for the initial install to start off in the perfect initial
state, and the upgrades to do the work behind the scenes. So now the
install() function gets things set up properly the first time, and the
upgrade() function does any work to catch you up to the latest code.
See gallery_installer.php for a good example.
Kohana makes this type of transition fairly straightforward in that
all controllers/helpers/etc are still located in the cascading
filesystem without any extra effort, except that I've temporarily
added a hack to force modules/gallery into the module path.
Rename what's left of "core" to be "application" so that it conforms
more closely to the Kohana standard (basically, just
application/config/config.php which is the minimal thing that you need
in the application directory)
There's still considerable work left to be done here.
