23 - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: the node protocol used by this version is not
24 compatible to versions <2 - you have to upgrade all nodes.
25 - AnyEvent::MP::Global is now optional - only seed nodes autoload it
26 and create a fully-meshed network with each other, normal nodes only
27 have to connect to seed nodes, other connections are on-demand.
28 - new "norc" and "force" options for MP::configure to ignore
29 or override the rc file.
30 - move seed code to Kernel.
31 - fixed small typo in MP::Transport.
32 - fix (unused) provider-kv (version sometimes missing).
33 - reduce the default export list of MP::Kernel.
34 - reduced various random delays to zero, as they
35 are hopefully no longer needed with the new global
36 protocol.
37 - do not use GMP for generating alphanumeric strings even when
38 available, use a more tricky algorithm instead.
39 - anonymous node names and remote port names have been shortened
40 considerably.
41 - aemp shell now supports "package" selection and offers an
42 $ECHO port you cna send messages to.
43 - rely on perl rand() instead of using /dev/urandom when available, as
44 hopefully it is random enough.
45 - aemp shell no longer leaks one port per command.

471.30 Thu Jun 30 11:30:39 CEST 2011
48 - connection errors at the right time would kill node
49 connections in a bad way (patch by Malcolm Studd).
50
511.29 Fri May 7 20:13:39 CEST 2010
52 - codename "Sadrak".
53 - fix error in callback at AnyEvent/MP/Global.pm line 339
54 (found by Sadrak).
55 - listener-less nodes had trouble sending keepalive
56 messages on write timeouts (found by Sadrak).
57 - the monitor guard could cause a memleak due
58 to autovivification if a mon was cleared after
59 the port was gone (analysed by Sadrak).
60 - do not overwrite the config file if we couldn't read it
61 for some reason (lesson demonstrated by Sadrak).
62
631.28 Thu Apr 1 21:23:54 CEST 2010
64 - accepted connections didn't correctly set up the SRCNODE
65 in some cases, leading to intra-node messages (such as monitoring)
66 to fail silently (great testcase by Sadrak).
67
681.27 Sat Mar 20 21:11:16 CET 2010
69 - avoid exceptions in the transport code if the connection
70 fails during TLS negotiation.
71 - delay new address broadcasts in seednodes, to reduce the
72 likelyhood of nodes connecting at the same time, leading to
73 message loss.
74 - improve general message passing efficiency by 8%, and special
75 case json framing for a 50% speed increase.
76 - add hints how to interface to aemp nodes from other programming
77 languages using the aemp protocol in AnyEvent::MP::Transport
78 (it can really be quite simple).
79 - handle unsupported remote framings more gracefully.
80
811.26 Wed Dec 30 16:48:37 CET 2009
82 - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: the high-level node protocol changed,
83 all nodes need to upgrade.
84 - remote kil's did not work (reported by Eugene Grigoriev).
85 - documented monitor_timeout, connect_interval, auth_offer,
86 auth_accept, framing_format, autocork and nodelay options
87 and make them configurable via bin/aemp.
88 - some doc updates.
89 - remote kil's were not synchronous to message sends which affected
90 nobody, as remote kils were broken.
91 - remote mon/unmonitor requests were not synchronous to message
92 sends either sometimes, although it likely didnt matter.
93
941.24 Wed Dec 9 14:59:52 CET 2009
95 - codename "the foul egg".
96 - increased "unmonitored local port died" message level to 2, so
97 it is displayed by default now.
98 - generate random seed at configure time, not module loading time,
99 so fork&configure works as expected.
100 - decreased "seed"-related message priority in Global from 0 (d'oh)
101 to 9, as they are not signifcant.
9 - new experimental module AnyEvent::MP::DataConn to establish 102 - new experimental module AnyEvent::MP::DataConn to establish
10 additional data connections between nodes. 103 additional data connections between nodes.
11 - bin/aemp now loads AnyEvent::Watchdog::Util before trying 104 - bin/aemp now loads AnyEvent::Watchdog::Util before trying
12 to call restart. 105 to call restart.
13 - bin/aemp setcert didn't properly handle the filename argument. 106 - bin/aemp setcert didn't properly handle the filename argument.
107 - removed empty and unused timeout= parameter from protocol greeting.

16 - listener-less nodes were misinformed by their masters about 110 - listener-less nodes were misinformed by their masters about
17 the location of new nodes, and therefore didn't connect 111 the location of new nodes, and therefore didn't connect
18 properly in all cases. 112 properly in all cases.
