CPAN::Changes::Parser - Parse a CPAN Changelog file

version_like
       A regular expression for a token that will be accepted in place of a version number.  For example, this
       could be set to "qr/\{\{\$NEXT\}\}/" if the Dist::Zilla plugin [NextRelease] is managing the file.

   version_prefix
       A regular expression for a prefix that will be matched before a version number.  "qr/=head\d\s+/" could
       be used if the change log is using Pod headings for the release headings.

       See CPAN::Changes for authors.
