v1.4 - [custom meat]

• Added the ability to change the names of dropped meat.
  - I.e. new item stacks! E.g. vanilla Beef dropped from a Cow will not stack with Horse Beef.
  - PS: Changing the names in the config will not update the names of meat already obtained by players.
  - Will warn on config load if the meat names is specified more than once for the same animal.
  - If no custom names are specified the plugins default custom names are used.
  ...Custom names must be >1 character long.
  ...Setting an empty (or single character) name will disable custom stacks = vanilla item stacks.
  ...PS: An empty string must have quotes!!! (i.e. NameRaw: "" or NameRaw: '' is OK)
• The animal config deserialization will output an info message if it detects unrecognized data.
  - The unrecognized data will simply be ignored and is left untouched.
• Now using more robust configurationFile loading/saving mechanism.
  - Failing to load/parse the config will no longer overwrite it with default values.
  ...(e.g. because of a typo causing incorrect YAML syntax.)

v1.3 - [kill it with fire!]

• Animals that are killed while on fire will now drop cooked/grilled meat instead of raw meat.
  - PS: In vanilla minecraft one-shot killing an animal with a fire weapon will drop raw meat.
  ...It has to be on fire before it dies! My plugin behaves just the same.

v1.2 - [variable drop-rates]

• Added ability to configure drop-rates, including rate likeliness of quantities.
  - Likeliness is relative to one another, it's not percentage.
  ...Percentage drop-rate of Quantity q equals likeliness_of_q / sum_of_likeliness_for_all_q.
  ...All zero rate = wont drop anything.
  ...Example: {qty:0, rate:2} + {qty:1, rate:3} + {qty:2, rate:1} would give:
  * zero drops 2 out of 5 times
  * one drops 3 out of 5 times
  * two drops 1 out of 5 times
  (because 2 + 3 + 1 = 5)
  - Will warn on config load if the same animal is found more than once in the config.
• Added command to reload the config, "/animalsdm reload", and animalsdropmeat.reload permission to match.
• Adjusted the drop-rates for babies to half of the drop quantity for adults rounded down.
  - E.g. adult qty1 -> baby qty0, adult qty2 -> baby qty1, adult qty3 -> baby qty1, etc.
• Now using v1.2.1 of PluginUpdater.

v1.1 - [future proofing]

• Replaced deprecated (magic value) Itemstack constructor with its enum-based counterpart.
  - Technical detail only - behaviour identical to v1.0
• Added mcStats-lite to track usage.
• Added PluginUpdater for auto-update support. (Preparation in case update needed for 1.7.2)
  - Added "/animalsdm check" and "/animalsdm download" to check for / download updates.
  - Requires new animalsdropmeat.update permission. (default: op)
  - "check" and "download" can be tab-completed - no need to spell out the whole word.
  - Secure implementation: wont reveal the existence of commands a player doesn't have permission to use.

v1.0 - [initial release]

• Makes Wolfs and Horses drop 1 Raw Beef on death.
• Makes Squids drop 1 Raw Fish on death.
• Makes Ocelots and Sheep drop 1 Raw Pork on death.

Bug: Smelting (aka cooking the meat) will always result in vanilla meat. (Fixed in v1.5)
