Re: Big problems trying to use "medium" as a model name

I didn't change anything in the source, and it worked under v1.2.0.x,
and now it doesn't anymore. So I presume it's because of the upgrade
to v1.3.4, and I also found this:

"Adding media as an uninflected word" on https://trac.cakephp.org/changeset/5104

Anyone could try to bake a small application with a Medium/Media model
that has a HABTM relationship to an Author/Authors model? As far as I
can see this is NOT possible for some reason... And don't forget to
add the inflection rule:

Inflector::rules('plural', array('rules' => array(), 'irregular' =>
array('medium' => 'media'), 'uninflected' => array()));
