 As of 6.3 check out lib/WebGUI/Asset/Wobject/Navigation.pm if you want to
 write custom navigation macros.
 
 
+2.3 Macro API Changed
+
+In 6.8 we modified the macro API to be more user friendly, and more
+importantly to use a lot less memory. This has two results. If you use the
+macro methods like filter(), negate(), or process() then you need to start
+passing your content in as a scalar reference instead of a regular scalar. If
+you write your own macros, you no longer need to call getParams() to retreive
+your parameters. That is automatically done for you now.
