18 - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: the node protocol used by this version is not
19 compatible to versions <2 - you have to upgrade all nodes.
20 - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: many APIs have changed, see the section
21 "PORTING FROM VERSION 1" in the AnyEvent::MP manpage for details.
22 - AnyEvent::MP::Global is now optional - only seed nodes autoload it
23 and create a fully-meshed network with each other, normal nodes only
24 have to connect to seed nodes, other connections are on-demand.
25 - new "norc" and "force" options for MP::configure to ignore
26 or override the rc file.
27 - move seed code to Kernel.
28 - non-json receive framing was probably broken.
29 - fixed small typo in MP::Transport.
30 - fix (unused) provider-kv (version sometimes missing).
31 - reduce the default export list of MP::Kernel.
32 - reduced various random delays to zero, as they
33 are hopefully no longer needed with the new global
34 protocol.
35 - implement a secure mode that can suppress code execution
36 requests on a per-node/per-request basis.
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 - $AnyEvent::MP::Kernel::SRCNODE contains the node ID of the origin
42 node during message receives.
43 - aemp shell now supports "package" selection and offers an
44 $ECHO port you can send messages to.
45 - rely on perl rand() instead of using /dev/urandom when available, as
46 hopefully it is random enough.
47 - aemp shell no longer leaks one port per command.
48 - nodenames can contain %-escapes such as %n or %u.
49 - aemp now uses aemp/%n/%u as nodename.
50 - configure supports "eval", a small perl snippet to initialsie a node,
51 most useful in "aemp run eval ...".
52 - known_nodes is gone, it has little value, use all_nodes as
53 replacement.
54 - lots of small change and improvements.
55 - node_is_known has been removed.
56 - TRACE now shows the portid on SND.

581.30 Thu Jun 30 11:30:39 CEST 2011
59 - connection errors at the right time would kill node
60 connections in a bad way (patch by Malcolm Studd).
61
621.29 Fri May 7 20:13:39 CEST 2010
63 - codename "Sadrak".
64 - fix error in callback at AnyEvent/MP/Global.pm line 339
65 (found by Sadrak).
66 - listener-less nodes had trouble sending keepalive
67 messages on write timeouts (found by Sadrak).
68 - the monitor guard could cause a memleak due
69 to autovivification if a mon was cleared after
70 the port was gone (analysed by Sadrak).
71 - do not overwrite the config file if we couldn't read it
72 for some reason (lesson demonstrated by Sadrak).
73
741.28 Thu Apr 1 21:23:54 CEST 2010
75 - accepted connections didn't correctly set up the SRCNODE
76 in some cases, leading to intra-node messages (such as monitoring)
77 to fail silently (great testcase by Sadrak).
78
791.27 Sat Mar 20 21:11:16 CET 2010
80 - avoid exceptions in the transport code if the connection
81 fails during TLS negotiation.
82 - delay new address broadcasts in seednodes, to reduce the
83 likelyhood of nodes connecting at the same time, leading to
84 message loss.
85 - improve general message passing efficiency by 8%, and special
86 case json framing for a 50% speed increase.
87 - add hints how to interface to aemp nodes from other programming
88 languages using the aemp protocol in AnyEvent::MP::Transport
89 (it can really be quite simple).
90 - handle unsupported remote framings more gracefully.
91
921.26 Wed Dec 30 16:48:37 CET 2009
93 - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: the high-level node protocol changed,
94 all nodes need to upgrade.
95 - remote kil's did not work (reported by Eugene Grigoriev).
96 - documented monitor_timeout, connect_interval, auth_offer,
97 auth_accept, framing_format, autocork and nodelay options
98 and make them configurable via bin/aemp.
99 - some doc updates.
100 - remote kil's were not synchronous to message sends which affected
101 nobody, as remote kils were broken.
102 - remote mon/unmonitor requests were not synchronous to message
103 sends either sometimes, although it likely didnt matter.
104
1051.24 Wed Dec 9 14:59:52 CET 2009
106 - codename "the foul egg".
107 - increased "unmonitored local port died" message level to 2, so
108 it is displayed by default now.
109 - generate random seed at configure time, not module loading time,
110 so fork&configure works as expected.
111 - decreased "seed"-related message priority in Global from 0 (d'oh)
112 to 9, as they are not signifcant.
113 - new experimental module AnyEvent::MP::DataConn to establish
114 additional data connections between nodes.
115 - bin/aemp now loads AnyEvent::Watchdog::Util before trying
116 to call restart.
117 - bin/aemp setcert didn't properly handle the filename argument.
118 - removed empty and unused timeout= parameter from protocol greeting.
119
1201.23 Fri Nov 6 18:46:26 CET 2009
121 - listener-less nodes were misinformed by their masters about
122 the location of new nodes, and therefore didn't connect
123 properly in all cases.
124 - messages send during node-up processing could sometimes get lost,
125 which would hamper global's ability to mesh the network.
126 - fixed AnyEvent::MP::Global::grp_reg to return a guard also
127 in scalar context.
128 - fixed AnyEvent::MP::Kernel::mon_nodes to return a guard also
129 in scalar context.
130 - try to improve error reporting when automatically loading
131 a function - being unable to load a module will now
132 stop the process and report the error.
