* Added new adapater for working with the Nanoc static site generation framework.
* Fix issue #22 - last link in a breadcrumb trail may now be rendered as static text insted by supplying :static_leaf => true as an option

*3.6.0

* Added linkless items functionality - the `url` parameter is now optional, items which aren't links will be rendered within a 'span' element rather than an 'a' element. `options` remain optional (defaults to an empty Hash).  `options` may be provided without providing a `url` (detected by checking if the '`url`' parameter is a Hash or otherwise).

*3.5.1

*3.5.0

*3.3.2

* The patch listed in 3.3.1 somehow did not make it into the gem... sorry. Re-releasing...

* Renderer::List --> make content of ul-tag html_safe for rails 3.0.0.beta2 (due to rails3 XSS protection). Credits to Johan Svensson and Disha Albaqui.

*2.0.1

* fixed handling of a non-existent explicit navigation item for a navigation context

*2.0.0

* added auto_highlight feature. Active navigation is determined by comparing urls, no need to explicitly set it in the controllers anymore. Thanks to Jack Dempsey and Florian Hanke for the support on this.
* added ability to create multi-level navigations (not just limited to primary and secondary navigation). Thanks again to Jack Dempsey for the motivation ;-)
* simplified the process to explicitly set the navigation in the controller (where needed) - only deepest level has to be specified

* ability to specify dom_class for primary and secondary lists. Thanks Richard!

*1.2.2

* renderers now have access to request_forgery_protection stuff (this allows delete-links as navigation-items)

*1.2.1

* changed way to include render_*-helper_methods into view (including them into Controller and declaring them as helper_methods instead of adding whole module as Helper). this seems to be more reliable under certain conditions. Credits to Gernot Kogler.

*1.2.0

* added capability to add conditions to navigation-items (primary.item key, name, url, :if => Proc.new {current_user.admin?})

*1.1.2

* Bugfix: config now gets evaluated on every render_navigation call. Credits to Joël Azémar.
