- 8. Routers now support multiple "condition" tests, IF each router yields
- a string which the bool{} operator recognises. Note that this is a departure
- from normal Router "condition" truth, requiring the stricter standard of
- "true" that ACLS use. This might be relaxed in a future release if there
- is sufficient demand.
- When debugging, bear in mind that these are internally wrapped up into
- a longer, more complicated, string. There's a reason that the bool{}
- logic is a dependency.
+ 8. There is a new expansion operator, bool_lax{}. Where bool{} uses the ACL
+ condition logic to determine truth/failure and will fail to expand many
+ strings, bool_lax{} uses the router condition logic, where most strings
+ do evaluate true.
