RasPat1 ff21281b95 Note about selector class import
This is the salient point of this code compared to the last example.  We have a selector now and this is how we use it.  Especially since the user has just come from the shell where the pre-instantiated selector is taken for granted.

* Made Item Pipeline Manager a subclass of scrapy.middleware.MiddlewareManager

  callbacks (backwards compatibility kept through arguments introspection)

Rolando Espinoza La fuente db5c3df679 SEP12 implementation
* Rename BaseSpider.domain_name to BaseSpider.name

    This patch implements the domain_name to name change in BaseSpider class and
    change all spider instantiations to use the new attribute.

  * Add allowed_domains to spider

    This patch implements the merging of spider.domain_name and
    spider.extra_domain_names in spider.allowed_domains for offsite checking
    purposes.

    Note that spider.domain_name is not touched by this patch, only not used.

  * Remove spider.domain_name references from scrapy.stats

    * Rename domain_stats to spider_stats in MemoryStatsCollector
    * Use ``spider`` instead of ``domain`` in SimpledbStatsCollector
    * Rename domain_stats_history table to spider_data_history and rename domain
    field to spider in MysqlStatsCollector

  * Refactor genspider command

    The new signature for genspider is: genspider [options] <domain_name>.

    Genspider uses domain_name for spider name and for the module name.

  * Remove spider.domain_name references

  * Update crawl command signature <spider|url>

  * docs: updated references to domain_name

  * examples/experimental: use spider.name

  * genspider: require <name> <domain>

  * spidermanager: renamed crawl_domain to crawl_spider_name

  * spiderctl: updated references of *domain* to spider

  * added backward compatiblity with legacy spider's attributes
    'domain_name' and 'extra_domain_names'
