- Template caching has been converted into a plugin

  system, whereby the usage of Beaker is just the
  default plugin.   Template and TemplateLookup
  now accept a string "cache_impl" parameter which
  refers to the name of a cache plugin, defaulting
  to the name 'beaker'.  New plugins can be
  registered as pkg_resources entrypoints under
  the group "mako.cache", or registered directly
  using mako.cache.register_plugin().  The
  core plugin is the mako.cache.CacheImpl
  class.

- The <%def>, <%block> and <%page> tags now accept
  any argument named "cache_*", and the key
  minus the "cache_" prefix will be passed as keyword
  arguments to the CacheImpl methods.

- Template and TemplateLookup now accept an argument
  cache_args, which refers to a dictionary containing
  cache parameters.  The cache_dir, cache_url, cache_type,
  cache_timeout arguments are deprecated (will probably
  never be removed, however) and can be passed
  now as cache_args={'url':<some url>, 'type':'memcached',
  'timeout':50, 'dir':'/path/to/some/directory'}
