25 - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: the node protocol used by this version is not
26 compatible to versions <2 - you have to upgrade all nodes.
27 - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: many APIs have changed, see the section
28 "PORTING FROM VERSION 1" in the AnyEvent::MP manpage for details.
29 - AnyEvent::MP::Global is now optional - only seed nodes autoload it
30 and create a fully-meshed network with each other, normal nodes only
31 have to connect to seed nodes, other connections are on-demand.
32 - new "norc" and "force" options for MP::configure to ignore
33 or override the rc file.
34 - move seed code to Kernel.
35 - fixed small typo in MP::Transport.
36 - fix (unused) provider-kv (version sometimes missing).
37 - reduce the default export list of MP::Kernel.
38 - reduced various random delays to zero, as they
39 are hopefully no longer needed with the new global
40 protocol.
41 - implement a secure mode that can suppress remote code execution
42 requests on a per-node/per-request basis.
43 - do not use GMP for generating alphanumeric strings even when
44 available, use a more tricky algorithm instead.
45 - anonymous node names and remote port names have been shortened
46 considerably.
47 - aemp shell now supports "package" selection and offers an
48 $ECHO port you cna send messages to.
49 - rely on perl rand() instead of using /dev/urandom when available, as
50 hopefully it is random enough.
51 - aemp shell no longer leaks one port per command.
52 - nodenames can contain %-escapes such as %n or %u.
53 - aemp now uses aemp/%n/%u as nodename.
54 - known_nodes is gone, it has little value, use all_nodes as
55 replacement.
56 - lots of small change and improvements.
57 - TRACE now shows the portid on SND.

591.30 Thu Jun 30 11:30:39 CEST 2011
60 - connection errors at the right time would kill node
61 connections in a bad way (patch by Malcolm Studd).
62
631.29 Fri May 7 20:13:39 CEST 2010
64 - codename "Sadrak".
65 - fix error in callback at AnyEvent/MP/Global.pm line 339
66 (found by Sadrak).
67 - listener-less nodes had trouble sending keepalive
68 messages on write timeouts (found by Sadrak).
69 - the monitor guard could cause a memleak due
70 to autovivification if a mon was cleared after
71 the port was gone (analysed by Sadrak).
72 - do not overwrite the config file if we couldn't read it
73 for some reason (lesson demonstrated by Sadrak).
74
751.28 Thu Apr 1 21:23:54 CEST 2010
76 - accepted connections didn't correctly set up the SRCNODE
77 in some cases, leading to intra-node messages (such as monitoring)
78 to fail silently (great testcase by Sadrak).
79
801.27 Sat Mar 20 21:11:16 CET 2010
81 - avoid exceptions in the transport code if the connection
82 fails during TLS negotiation.
83 - delay new address broadcasts in seednodes, to reduce the
84 likelyhood of nodes connecting at the same time, leading to
85 message loss.
86 - improve general message passing efficiency by 8%, and special
87 case json framing for a 50% speed increase.
88 - add hints how to interface to aemp nodes from other programming
89 languages using the aemp protocol in AnyEvent::MP::Transport
90 (it can really be quite simple).
91 - handle unsupported remote framings more gracefully.
92
931.26 Wed Dec 30 16:48:37 CET 2009
94 - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: the high-level node protocol changed,
95 all nodes need to upgrade.
96 - remote kil's did not work (reported by Eugene Grigoriev).
97 - documented monitor_timeout, connect_interval, auth_offer,
98 auth_accept, framing_format, autocork and nodelay options
99 and make them configurable via bin/aemp.
100 - some doc updates.
101 - remote kil's were not synchronous to message sends which affected
102 nobody, as remote kils were broken.
103 - remote mon/unmonitor requests were not synchronous to message
104 sends either sometimes, although it likely didnt matter.
105
1061.24 Wed Dec 9 14:59:52 CET 2009
107 - codename "the foul egg".
108 - increased "unmonitored local port died" message level to 2, so
109 it is displayed by default now.
110 - generate random seed at configure time, not module loading time,
111 so fork&configure works as expected.
112 - decreased "seed"-related message priority in Global from 0 (d'oh)
113 to 9, as they are not signifcant.
114 - new experimental module AnyEvent::MP::DataConn to establish
115 additional data connections between nodes.
116 - bin/aemp now loads AnyEvent::Watchdog::Util before trying
117 to call restart.
118 - bin/aemp setcert didn't properly handle the filename argument.
119 - removed empty and unused timeout= parameter from protocol greeting.
120
1211.23 Fri Nov 6 18:46:26 CET 2009
122 - listener-less nodes were misinformed by their masters about
123 the location of new nodes, and therefore didn't connect
124 properly in all cases.
125 - messages send during node-up processing could sometimes get lost,
126 which would hamper global's ability to mesh the network.
8 - fixed AnyEvent::MP::Global::grp_reg to return a guard also 127 - fixed AnyEvent::MP::Global::grp_reg to return a guard also
9 in scalar context. 128 in scalar context.
129 - fixed AnyEvent::MP::Kernel::mon_nodes to return a guard also
130 in scalar context.
131 - try to improve error reporting when automatically loading
132 a function - being unable to load a module will now
133 stop the process and report the error.
