I have been following Mojolicious pretty religiously for over two years
now.  I'd be happy to commit to doing this, but I don't know that I
understand changes well enough to devise examples.  It generally takes me
much longer to have that "aha" moment of the impact of such an
improvement/fix/deprecation.

Nevertheless, I would be more than willing to keep such a wiki updated to
the best of my ability and perhaps at some point someone else would see the
value who is more qualified to maintain it.

As an example for a recent occurrence:

Deprecated Mojo::DOM::siblings
Alternative: Mojo::DOM::following_siblings and
Mojo::DOM::preceding_siblings.
(Is there a more appropriate word than "alternative"?)

I would then link to commits, reference versions (effective 5.69, IIRC),
and link to appropriate sections in documentation.  Generally your changes
also incorporate examples, so I reckon I wouldn't need an example for the
new methods, but perhaps in showing something to the effect of what one
used to do (e.g. render(partial=>1)) and what one should now do (e.g.
render_to_string()) and then link to the doc for the latter.

Does that sound about right and sufficient for what you were thinking would
be necessary and desirable?
