The second alpha of Pyramid 1.1 (1.1a2) has been released.

Here are the changes:

Bug Fixes
---------

- 1.1a1 broke Akhet by not providing a backwards compatibility import
  shim for ``pyramid.paster.PyramidTemplate``.  Now one has been
  added, although a deprecation warning is emitted when Akhet imports
  it.

- If multiple specs were provided in a single call to
  ``config.add_translation_dirs``, the directories were inserted into
  the beginning of the directory list in the wrong order: they were
  inserted in the reverse of the order they were provided in the
  ``*specs`` list (items later in the list were added before ones
  earlier in the list).  This is now fixed.

Backwards Incompatibilities
---------------------------

- The pyramid Router attempted to set a value into the key
  ``environ['repoze.bfg.message']`` when it caught a view-related
  exception for backwards compatibility with applications written for
  ``repoze.bfg`` during error handling.  It did this by using code
  that looked like so::

                    # "why" is an exception object
                    try: 
                        msg = why[0]
                    except:
                        msg = ''

                    environ['repoze.bfg.message'] = msg

  Use of the value ``environ['repoze.bfg.message']`` was
  docs-deprecated in Pyramid 1.0.  Our standing policy is to not
  remove features after a deprecation for two full major releases, so
  this code was originally slated to be removed in Pyramid 1.2.
  However, computing the ``repoze.bfg.message`` value was the source
  of at least one bug found in the wild
  (https://github.com/Pylons/pyramid/issues/199), and there isn't a
  foolproof way to both preserve backwards compatibility and to fix
  the bug.  Therefore, the code which sets the value has been removed
  in this release.  Code in exception views which relies on this
  value's presence in the environment should now use the ``exception``
  attribute of the request (e.g. ``request.exception[0]``) to retrieve
  the message instead of relying on
  ``request.environ['repoze.bfg.message']``.
